In this article I’m addressing a few things that I don’t want to make separate short videos about. It’s to do with dreams, teachers that I recommended, a common witchcraft strategy to influence the children of God, and false accusations.

On dreams

Firstly, I would like to yet again emphasize the importance of writing down your dreams and trying to interpret them. God uses dreams to warn you of Satan’s plans for you, dangers ahead, as well as of blessings to come.

These days I’m receiving dreams about the coming blessings, and it’s interesting that these dreams promising rewards started coming after a year of me being saved. This shows that God indeed takes seazons into consideration – that there is a seazon for sowing and a seazon for reaping.

I’ve been working for God for a year now, and my dreams indicate that the blessings will soon reach me; in the last dream that I got I was shown that I produced fruit for God, and that I will receive a reward for that.

If you do not care to write down or interpret your dreams, you might think that your dreams don’t make any sense. It’s the habit of always writing them down and then taking time to analyze them that will make you able to see beyond what seems to be unrelated events or things in the dream; also, if you ask God for the gift of wisdom, it will further enable you to understand what dreams try to reveal.

When you are able to read your dreams, you will be prepared for any planned attack of the Enemy as well as ready to receive the blessings from God. Therefore I encourage all my readers to pay close attention to dreams and to ponder on them long enough to see a message in them (though you may not be able to interpret some dreams as I mention in the basic principles of dream interpretation article).

On teachers

I’ve received criticism from some readers about my recommended teachers. For example, I like the materials of John Paul Jackson, Kevin Ewing, Brenda from Submissive Wife YouTube channel, Rob Skiba, pastor Charles Lawson and more. I’ve noticed a trend in the way that people reject these teachers – they notice a few negative traits and this makes them call them false teachers.

This is not what false teachers are. False teachers intentionally mislead. Just because all these people fall from perfection doesn’t make them false teachers. Only Jesus was perfect on this earth. So if I, or any of my recommended teachers, have some negative traits, this doesn’t make us false teachers.

All of us struggle with some things. Yes, John Paul Jackson charged a lot for his materials. But should we focus on one negative trait and dismiss so many gems of wisdom in his teachings? And we don’t even know where the money went – maybe it was spent to benefit the poor or for some other good purpose.

For example, he planted five churches, and money had to come from somewhere to do it. Therefore, I consider it unwise to label someone a false teacher just because something that he did is humanly judged wrong, whilst overlooking his many positive traits.

The same applies to all the other teachers that I recommend. Of course none of them are perfect. None of us are perfect. We are all at different stages of sanctification. If you would reject every teacher who has some unwelcome traits, you would be left with no teachers at all.

If you have no brotherly love you are none of His

For example, I personally do not agree with the theology of pastor Charles Lawson which is the traditional Baptist faith. However, I love him because he’s a child of God. I love him because he is born-again, and I feel that he has the anointing to be the pastor. Of course he does – that’s why so many people follow his teachings, and, more importantly, people really love him.

There’s no doubt in my mind that he is greatly anointed, yet does that make him right all the time? Of course not. Some pastors completely misuse their God-given anointing. Which means that there could be anointed false pastors – because the gifts of God are without repentance – which means they are irrevocable (Romans 11:29). So just because someone is anointed doesn’t make them perfect – they have to go through the stages of sanctification that all believers do, and they can fall away just like any other believer.

Despite the fact that I don’t agree with his theology, I dearly love this child of God. I love him because of the fact that He is born-again. It’s natural for born-again people to love each other. That’s just what happens when you are born again!

Those who have no love in them for the brethren, are none of Jesus. Those who come against born-again people with slander and hatred are devoid of the Holy Spirit and they have the spirit of murder in them. Their end is death.

Those who are haters have no life in them as it’s told in the Scriptures (1 John 3:15). It’s easy to ignore this verse, but it’s very important as now there’s so much hatred even from people calling themselves Christians. We must discern the spirits, and not to confuse the wolves for the sheep. I don’t waste my time on such haters, because they are not my brothers or sisters.

So though I may not agree with some born-again people’s opinions or theology, I love them anyway. I love listening to pastor Charles Lawson on my Sabbaths on the coming New World Order, Satan, and other topics that he has good knowledge of. I also love listening to Hoshanna Rabbah for the same reason, though our theologies differ in some points.

Another teacher who is greatly attacked is Brenda from the Submissive Wife channel. Some people claim her to be a false prophetess because she receives many messages from the Holy Spirit. I don’t think the frequency of such messages proves her to be false.

Plus, her anointing is shown by the battle that’s taking place between her and demons. As John Paul Jackson rightly noted, the greater the anointing, the more demons will attack those who are saved. I’ve found this to be absolutely true. Those who experience greatest demon attacks after being saved are prepared for a great work ahead of them, because now they are being prepared:

Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you (…).

— 1 Peter 4:12

We pay for everything that we receive. Those who served most, will be greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven. Those who paid more, will receive more. Those who put more work, will be rewarded more. The worker who made most talents from the given talents was given the rule of most kingdoms (Matthew 25:14-30).

The same applies to battling with demons. Although at the moment many people experience heavy demon oppression and they feel really down, I wish they would understand that when they eventually win, great will be their reward for withstanding this fiery trial!

On fasting

I personally had to fight with demons for a year. Now, due to my regular fasting, I got rid of almost all of them. I’m so happy to finally be able to say this! I feel so free. I’m so grateful that Jesus delivered me.

This year of battling with demons have taught me so much, especially the importance of depending on God. That’s another reason, I believe, why God doesn’t remove all demons at once after you are born-again – He teaches you to depend on Him, as if you are free from the troubles at once, you might forget the source of your deliverance.

Also, some demons may be kept in your body so that your pride doesn’t rise up, like the messenger of Satan was kept in Paul’s flesh.

I would like to suggest those who struggle against strong demons to do a three-days dry fast if they can, especially if they are dealing with marine demons. And then get into the habit of fasting on a weekly basis. Demons absolutely hate when you keep detoxifying your body, because you’re removing poisons out of your body which they feed on.

Jesus told that some demons go only by fasting and prayer (Matthew 17:21), and it’s absolutely true. Thanks for this advice of our King I’m almost completely free – a thing that seemed impossible to even imagine at the beginning of my Christian walk!

How Witchcraft works against born-again believers

The teachers that I recommend receive severe attack, but this again shows to me that they are real born-again individuals doing the work of Christ. The world hates them that are not of the world. So Christians should rejoice when slander comes their way, and they should bless those who curse them as Jesus advised.

Jesus told that firstly the world hated Him, and that all who will follow Him will be treated the same. So although it’s not nice to know that people try to kill your name with false accusations, Christians should rejoice because that’s a confirmation that they are on the right way.

From what I’ve been experiencing I’ve come to notice how witchcraft works against those who know their place in Christ. Satan uses either unsaved people who call themselves Christians to accomplish this goal, or even born-again believers who allow the spirit of jealousy to enter their hearts through witnessing those who know their place in Christ, whilst they themselves do not (my next post will be about how to find your place in Christ).

So through all kinds of individuals Satan tries to take believers off their God-defined paths, because it’s a big threat to Satan’s kingdom when a born-again believer works in accordance to God’s will against the darkness.

Firstly, in order to destroy such an individual, Satan uses persons to approach them in a nice way with the attempt to influence their opinions and beliefs so that they move away from the guidance of the Holy Spirit and start trusting the wisdom of men.

Basically, what will happen is that people will try to be your friends, but only if you agree with their opinions. If you stick to the Holy Spirit and aren’t influenced by their theology and advice, they will get offended and may start slandering you – then you will come to see what type of tree they are from the type of fruits that they produce!

When you withstand this kind of subtle attack of the Enemy, the next thing he may try to do is to invest in you and then try to again influence you away from the guidance of the Holy Spirit.

For example, I get people who donate to me with the intention of changing my opinion. So they don’t donate with a free heart out of the gratitude for my work, but with a wicked intention to influence me because of the fact that they donated – as though I’m supposed to do what they say because of their monetary input.

Yielding to this would make me a respecter of persons, and since God is no respecter of persons (Romans 2:11), and neither was Jesus when He walked on earth (Luke 20:21), I try to follow the way that my God and my Saviour walk and not what the world thinks to be right.

I think some Christians do not realize that giving with such an intention in mind is a form of witchcraft. Any attempt to influence the will of another person always comes from witchcraft.

When this kind of subtle attack of the Enemy doesn’t work, then Satan knows that he will need to use force to destroy such an individual, and then he will either try to physically kill the person, or, more likely, to kill his name. That’s when many false accusations will start, so that the person loses credibility.

All real born-again believers who know their place in Christ will experience all these three stages if they don’t succumb to the first one or two. And when this happens, you should rejoice, because it shows that Satan tries hard to silence you as you are causing great damage to his kingdom!

A good book to study about the way that witchcraft influences Christians and the Church, is Exposing Spiritual Witchcraft by Jonas Clark (I do not know anything about this person’s theology – I’ve just read this one book).

The rewards of serving God

Lastly, I would like to address the importance and rewards of serving God. I recently got a comment from one born-again woman who asked about what to do about her situation. She said that she is unable to hear from God because she continues with her psychic readings’ occupation as that’s her source of income, and if she would stop doing it, she would lose her way to earn money. She asked me what to do about it.

In reply I must briefly share my own story. Before I got saved I was a successful new-age teacher. I was getting 6,000+ visitors a day to my blog, and my website was no.1 new-age website in India! I was quite a known new-age teacher, and I earned a lot of money from it, staying in expensive hotels during my travels.

Yet when I got saved I destroyed my entire new-age business. I deleted all my articles and I stopped selling all my new age books, which were many. So all my income stopped. I was afraid to even teach about Jesus, as I’ve come to know the power of God through my conversion experience and so I did not want to anger him in any way.

At that time it was really difficult. I had to make a decision whether to rely on my own strength, and go and find some kind of job, or wait on the Lord. Fortunately, I chose the latter. I decided to wait for God to tell me what to do. And that’s why I was led to becoming a Christian teacher.

That’s the reason I’m happy and feel at peace – because I decided to rely on God for my supply, and not on my own strength. Not only He supplies me with all that I need, but following His plan for my life fills me with supernatural peace and a sense of accomplishment. I feel like fish in water in this office in Christ. I love what I do. I do not consider it a work. It’s pleasure.

Therefore I encourage everyone to wait on the Lord rather than relying on your own strength. Being guided by your fear will only lead to misery. Trust in God and He will abundantly reward you for your trust. But if you turn away from Him and trust in your own resources, He will turn away from you and withhold His resources from reaching you.

If you really believe that God created you, and that He created every single individual on this earth, wouldn’t it be natural to expect Him to work through those individuals to bless you and supply you? If you really believe to be serving the Creator of all, you must know that it’s very easy for Him to make sure you lack nothing.

Therefore if you’re doing something unfulfilling, I encourage you to put all your faith in God and be guided by Him only into your real office in Christ, as all of us are supposed to do something specific for the Kingdom. And when you are led to that office and use your God-given abilities to produce good fruit for the Kingdom, not only will you be supplied, but you will feel fulfilled, and you will experience peace beyond understanding, and what can be better than this! But more on this topic in my next article.

May God bless you, and fill you with strength to look only to Him for your sustenance. May God turn your sight away from the uncertainty of the world and into the certainty of His promises; may He lead you to the exact place in Christ that you belong, so that you do exactly what you’ve been created for, and receive joy and peace that’s not known by the world.

A warning

Firstly, it’s important to understand that Christians should not turn to pagan sources for their dream interpretations as it’s the same as going to the dark side to get help; as Christians, we should have nothing to do with darkness and look for help only from God or in Christian sources.

The reason pagan dream interpretation is false is because it was given to them by demons or from the wisdom of men and not God.

Greek philosophers made the mistake of trying to comprehend God with their own limited minds rather than praying to God to reveal Himself to them. The same applies to men who attempt to interpret dreams with their own mental resources. They always arrive at wrong conclusions, because they rely on their limited minds thinking that they do not need God to comprehend something that’s usually given by Him.

So we find modern philosophers and psychologists using their limited minds to understand dreams, and they end up misleading many who come to them for dream interpretation. Usually such dream interpreters end up projecting their own issues on the dreams of others, or rely on psychological terms to understand the dream, such as the inner child issues which again are constructs of men and not God.

For example, the dream interpreter John Paul Jackson once heard on the radio a woman telling about a dream of seeing her children surrounded by spiders in her backyard, and the secular dream interpreter told her that the dream was about her inner child issues, when the dream in actuality was a warning from God to cancel demonic bloodline issues because if she doesn’t, her children will be affected.

God talks to everyone in dreams, believers and unbelievers, but we as Christians have the advantage of understanding the language of God. Those relying on their own mental resources or demons, on the other hand, do not have this advantage.

For example, Freud suffered from issues to do with his sexual life, so he kept projecting these sexual issues on the dreams of other people. He believed that all circular and oblong objects in dreams represent male and female private parts (!), for example, or that anything that’s of yellow color in the dream must be urine. This man full of insecurities and unsolved issues is considered one of the greatest fathers of psychology, which shows the sad condition of the world, where the blind lead the blind.

So we cannot find wisdom coming from men when it comes to interpreting dreams, and therefore we should search it from the source that’s unfailing, that is God and His Word, and from those who already learnt biblical dream interpretation by analyzing biblical dreams and praying for guidance.

How I understood the importance of dreams

I’ve first learnt of the immense importance of dreams through Kevin Ewing. It’s because of his many videos on the importance of dreams that I started paying attention to them. He taught me that dreams are the spiritual events that are pending to manifest in the physical, and it’s up to you whether they manifest or not.

If you get a terrible dream and don’t cancel it, according to Kevin, the spiritual reality will soon become physical. Therefore it’s important to write down and analyze every single dream, and to cancel the dreams that were negative. Kevin says that you need to even agree with a good dream, if you want its contents to manifest in your waking reality.

I’ve learnt most of my dream interpretations, however, from John Paul Jackson, though he mainly focused on the positive dreams and not so much on those that were sent by demons, and Kevin Ewing focuses more on dreams sent by demons.

In this post I will share my dream understanding as a result of my prayers, personal dream interpretations, and these two teachers.

Three sources of dreams

You may receive dreams from:

God

Your own soul

Satan

John Paul Jackson believes that even dreams from Satan are sent by God, to reveal enemy’s plans so that you’re aware of them and can cancel the dream or prepare. Kevin Ewing, however, believes that demons can directly project into your dreams, and I believe this to be the case also when demonic oppression is present. But first let’s analyze the first type of dreams, which is the one that’s sent by God and is from God, and then we will go more into the detail about the other type.

Dreams that are sent by God and are from God are clear and bright. There’s nothing chaotic about them, though some details might be strange. But even if you see something unusual in the dream, the dream has harmony, peace and order. And those unusual things are highlighted so that you pay attention to them and don’t forget them, because they are very important.

So that’s something you must keep in mind – if in a dream some object acts not how it should, or you see something very strange about the dream, pay attention to it and try to figure out its meaning. For example, if the airplane floats on water instead of flying, or the tree is silver, or the water is color orange and not blue.

Even when God gives you dreams about the enemy, although they might be dark because they are warning dreams, you can feel that the dream was given with the positive intention of warning you so that you prepare or cancel the dream. If the dream repeats itself twice, it usually means that the event cannot be changed but God gives you the dream so that you prepare for the event and handle it well.

Sometimes God Himself will send some challenging event into your life to test you. He will warn of this coming storm in a dream. If the dream is bright but you see some natural disaster approaching, it’s probably a trial that God will send you shortly. For example, if a tornado is approaching, the coming trial is from God if its color is light and not dark.

If the dream is given by God and it’s a positive dream, it will have bright and clear colors, and you will feel goodness about it, it will be peaceful and happy. You will feel positive emotions in the dream, and you will wake up feeling pleased that you had such a dream.

If the dream comes from your own soul, it will be either about your desires or fears. That’s a warning sign for Christians that they focus on themselves and this world more than on God. Such dreams should not visit Christians, since their focus should be away from the self and only on God. But if you have strong earthly desires, they might carry over into your dream world also, and the same applies to fears.

People who always have recurring dreams are stuck in some type of fear-based mental pattern which must be broken for those dreams to stop. I remember before being saved always having the fear that I would not achieve my full potential, and so I kept having dreams of almost missing the flight, or sometimes missing my flight. When I got saved this dream stopped, because getting saved fulfilled my life-long desire which was to know God.

Dreams that are sent by demonic forces will visit those who are demonically oppressed. Demons enter dreams for you to renew covenants with them so that they continue negatively influencing your life. For example, if you cut a soul tie with a psychopath you might get a dream of having sexual relationships with that person, or hugging that person. This would renew the covenant. The same applies to dreams during which people give you to eat food or you agree with them in any other way.

Dreaming of being bound or even lying on a table during a satanic ritual are dreams from the enemy. They might indicate witchcraft being done on you spiritually. The same applies of dreams of spiders, black animals and people shooting at you or you dying in a dream. But again, it’s important to pay attention to how the dream felt and whether it was dark or light to determine if it was sent by demons or if it’s a warning from God about what demonic forces are preparing for you.

Also, if you dream something terrible and you wake up paralyzed, or you wake up with scratches or feel some presence with you for some time, then be sure that dreams were caused by evil spirits and you must cancel them immediately. I tell about how to cancel negative dreams and the covenants made during your sleep in this article.

Four types of dreams

The dreams are of four types:

Dreams about you

Dreams about others

Prophetic dreams

Personal prophesy dreams

Dreams about you are the most usual ones. They are the dreams in which you are the focus of the dream. Such dreams may notify you of the coming blessings, of the things to be aware of, or show your current spiritual or mental state. You know that you received a personal dream if the events of the dream revolve around you, and if you take yourself away from the dream, it loses its meaning.

Dreams about others have other people as the center of your dream. Usually it will be about some person that you know, or maybe a few people, or maybe even a group, such as your church. You know that the dream is about others when, if they are removed from the dream, it no longer makes sense.

In such dreams you are likely to be an observer only. Sometimes you might still in some minor way interact with the characters of the dream, which would show that the events that the dream discloses might affect you as well, but usually you will just be an observer in such a dream.

If others interact with you, the dream is about you as well, but you are not the main focus. However, God may want you to get some sort of message from that dream as well, and therefore you interact in that dream also.

If you receive such a dream about other people, you should let them know about the dream, even if you don’t exactly understand what it means. Though it’s told in the Bible that God gives wisdom abundantly for those who want it (James 1:5), so if you struggle with dream interpretation, just ask God to give you wisdom to interpret dreams and He will.

If you have a dream where at first you are involved in the dream but then you observe it as an invisible being, it means that at first the events symbolized by the dream will have an effect on you but later on you will not be affected by what’s happening. And if at first you observe the dream as an outsider and then you get involved in it, it means that at first the symbolized events will have no impact on you but later on they will start affecting you.

So the majority of dreams that people get are about themselves, and on rarer occasions about others. But sometimes people can receive prophetic dreams as well, which is much rarer. Usually people who are called to be the prophets of God receive prophetic dreams more frequently, though even people without such a calling can receive such dreams.

Prophetic dreams are about the future events of countries or even about the entire earth. I rarely get those dreams, but when I get I know they are prophetic because they are very different from the usual dreams that I receive. Prophetic dreams will have flags of different countries, numbers written in heavens for you to pay attention to, maps of certain countries, maybe symbols of certain countries.

I will share with you the dream I got the night before, to give you an example of a prophetic dream. I will not go into details because there were many, but I will describe the main events of the dream.

I was sent as a representative of God to a Muslim country. I believe it was Dubai because it was beautiful and sunny, and I appeared in a luxurious hotel. I saw a green sword in a white background. Green is the color of Islam.

I researched the sign after I woke up and it looks like a Jihadist sword but wider, and I made the crossed hand sign in the dream, and when I woke up I knew that I did that to indicate two crossed swords so that I’m able to understand what that country is or will be known for, and that is Jihad, and that sign was a Muslim brotherhood seal of two crossed swords:

There was an Indian businessman who started talking to me once we were out of the hotel, and that’s another reason why I think the country to be Dubai, because it’s known for Indian workers. He asked me what kind of ice-cream I liked, and I told all kinds, which isn’t actually true but in the dream it was.

He replied that I was lucky, and that I can feel at home in any country that I visit. I did not understand this part about the ice-cream. It could be a personal prophesy within the prophetic dream, which I will talk about later. Maybe it meant that I’m able to adjust to any kind of circumstances, or maybe the prophesy was literal – that I can feel at home anywhere I travel to.

Then the white heavens opened and there was pitch blackness, and some outlines of countries were revealed in that gap, and those countries’ outlines looked like how it would look like when you fly at night and you see many lights on the dark earth, but those lights were especially intense at countries’ borders, so that the outlines of them were clear.

I don’t remember the first few countries that were shown in that gap, but the last one was definitely India, and it looked something like this:

In my dream the sky opened and I saw the map of India looking something like this

I showed this sight in heavens to that Indian man and next we both saw a shape of a blue cow going across heavens, from right to left, and then the man noticed another cow, and I looked and again it was moving from right to left, and then we saw two airplanes that didn’t look like real (they looked like half-painted on skies, and half-real), and they lifted off from the point where cows stopped moving, and started flying from right to left, making a circle and then coming towards us.

I straight away started pleading the blood of Jesus because as soon as the heavens opened I knew this was something ominous. I strongly believed that I would win over the airplane that was now above me, and I encouraged the Indian man to plead the blood of Jesus with me, but he got scared of the airplane and ran away!

So I kept fighting it myself, and eventually it became like a paper airplane and then it could no longer hover over me and it crashed to the ground, and I saw one man crawling out of it, but I did not see his face. At first it was made to look like the attack wasn’t even engineered by humans but by forces such as aliens (which are demons as aliens don’t exist), but when the plane crashed it turned out it was manned by a human.

So this dream was a prophetic dream. It showed that Islamic forces will target India or Indian individuals working in Arab countries (I believe it was only about Dubai, though), and that without God those individuals will be helpless. I believe two cows were two good years, and two airplanes were two years of war or violence against Indians.

So dreams which show national flags, national symbols or maps, as well as symbols in heavens, are usually prophetic dreams that one should take time to analyze and warn people.

And then there are personal prophetic dreams which are sent to you to make you aware of something in your life or to warn you about something. In such dreams you have a person addressing you with certain words, and the words that they say to you is a prophesy to you.

So the dream is not about the other person but about you, because the person gives a message to you so it’s the message that’s most important. If the dream has only a message and other details are minor, it’s only the message that you should pay attention to. But if the dream has more details about it, you should pay attention to the details as well because that prophesy might, for example, only come true if you take some action indicated in the dream.

For example, recently I had a dream about a school director talking to me, and because I was with him, I was unable to attend one class, and I worried about it whilst he was talking to me, because my attendance rate that year was worse, and I was afraid that this might cause me not to pass the exam.

But the director, as though reading my mind, told not to worry about it, and something along the lines of that it’s only important to listen to him, and then everything would be okay. And lo and behold, I keep listening to him and then a teacher comes and presents me with a certificate that I passed the exam, and I passed it with a higher grade than I’ve ever gotten in my life, and that I did not even need to take the test to get that certificate!

This dream was a message from God, and the school director was God. The prophetic message was that if I only listen to Him, I would not need to worry about successfully accomplishing my mission in life because everything would work out to my advantage without me even studying half as hard as I usually do. If I only keep my eyes on God, I will end up achieving much more than I imagined that I could.

So in this dream both the message and the environment was important. The classroom was my preparation. I am currently being prepared for serving God. And God wanted to let me know that I should focus more on prayer than on any reading or any other study, and this will assure that my life will be lived to its potential, and that that potential is more than I can currently imagine. This is very applicable to my life because I study a great deal, much more than I pray.

So if someone talks to you in a dream, pay attention to the words that they say to you. It’s a direct prophesy to you.

General guidelines to understand the meaning of your dream

John Paul Jackson teaches that not all dreams can be interpreted, and sometimes dreams can be interpreted years after you got them, and that sometimes this is the Will of God. So do not expect to be able to interpret every single dream.

But to assure that you can interpret most of them, you should pray to God to give you the gift of dream interpretation, and fasting helps too because you become sensitive to things spiritual. I recommend fasting weekly, or even twice a weak for greater spiritual sensitivity.

You can also study biblical dreams to understand what symbols in those dreams stood for, though those symbols in your dreams will not always stand for whatever they stood for in the Bible, because sometimes dreams can be highly personal, and God could use the symbols that are only known to you and no one else. So we should not be rigid in dream interpretation and the most important thing is to rely on the Holy Spirit for revelation.

So pray to God to receive the gift of dream interpretation, fast to tune into the things spiritual, study biblical dreams and visions, be sensitive to the Holy Spirit, and also study the materials of those men and women of God who know how to interpret dreams, so that your ability to understand dreams keeps increasing.

To get the basic meaning of the dream, it’s important not to get lost in its details. You should be able to describe the dream in a sentence or two, and take it from there. It’s best at first to give the dream a title, because this will help you to understand the main message of the dream. Then describe it in a few more sentences. Think what this story line can stand for in your life, what God wants to say to you through this symbolic line of events.

Another good way to analyze the dream is by dividing it into its basic components which are the focus of the dream, the subfocus(es), and important dream details. The focus of the dream is usually you or some other person. You can write the focus down in the middle of the page and then circle it. Then draw lines out of that circle to the circles which mention the sub-focuses of the dream. And then around those subfocuses add a few important dream details.

For example, if to take the dream that I had about the school director, the focus was the conversation between me and the school director. So both of us are the focus, because if any of us are taken out of the dream, it loses meaning.

The sub-focus was the certificate with a high grade. The details of the dream was my worrying that I would not pass the exam, the realization that I don’t need to study hard to pass but that I just need to listen to the director, the classroom setting, and the teacher.

So if I would take only the focus and the subfocus of the dream, the dream already shows the meaning that I would pass the test if I would only listen to the director, and then if you look at the dream details it gives more clarity to this message, and we get the interpretation that God addresses me in my preparation stage with a message that I should pray more than study because this will assure my success beyond my current imagination of what I could achieve, and therefore I do not need to worry about studying more, but I should focus on praying more.

Therefore if you break the dream down in such a way, the story line will become very clear, and it will be much easier to figure out what message God had for you in the dream.

The meaning of the most common dream symbols

Finally, I will describe some common things you may encounter in your dreams and what they usually mean.

The house in the dream usually represents your life or yourself, if you feel that the house in the dream is yours. So whatever the condition of your house is in the dream, that’s the condition of either your life, your physical body, your mind, or your spirit.

Vehicles in the dream show your mission in life or your occupation. The bigger your vehicle, the more influence you have. If it’s only a bicycle, your influence is small; if it’s a car – it’s average. If it’s a large car, a ship, or an airplane, the influence is great.

If it is your vehicle but you’re not the one driving it, someone else has influence over your life, which is not good. If you drive backwards, you are not making progress but you are going backwards in your real life as well.

If it’s not your car, the dream may signify a joint partnership, working for someone else, or temporarily joining some company or ministry. If your husband drives your car, there’s nothing to worry about, because the husband is the head of the wife and it’s normal for him to be in charge.

So if you dream about having a personal vehicle in the dream, it’s about your mission in life or your profession, and by the way the vehicle looks and what it does in the dream, as well as by its size, you can tell a great deal about the condition of your calling.

To dream of animals running at you, bugs biting you or snakes and other pests attacking you indicates the attack of the enemy. Demonic forces attempt to attack you, so this dream is a warning dream for you to be aware and prepared, so that the demonic attack is not successful.

Sometimes these dreams can be cancelled, sometimes they cannot. Try cancelling it anyway, but sometimes the dream may show that you will be close to some demonic event that has to happen, and so you get this dream to strengthen yourself so that the attack doesn’t affect you.

For example, if you dream that you are very close to a road and you see thousands of animals running with one focus, but you know that that focus is not you, but they run so close to you that you almost get knocked out. This is a warning dream that you should be aware of the forces of evil operating in a particular area where you are, or of some sort of demonically powered thing that is about to happen, so that it doesn’t impact you negatively because of its greatness, though you are not its target.

Dreams of receiving presents are usually blessings from God, if the dream is bright and you wake up feeling happy. But receiving things from people in dreams may also indicate the renewal of demonic covenants, so you need to pay attention whether the dream was clear or not, whether it was bright and harmonious or dark and chaotic. This will show you from which side those gifts came from. Usually when you are happy about a special gift in your dream, it’s a gift from God, but when you receive it as though it’s no big deal, it’s a gift from demons.

Dreams of promotion, going up, flying up, getting good marks are usually very good dreams showing your progress and success in life. But sometimes dreams of flying may indicate witchcraft activity in your life, so again you must pay attention to how the dream felt.

Dreams of going down, downgrading to a worse car or a smaller vehicle, going down in an elevator, driving bakwards and not being in charge of your own car are all warning dreams showing that you are getting under the wrong influence, that your influence is lessening, or that you are going backwards in life.

Conclusion

Finally, let me summarize the most important points of this article so that they get more firmly estblished in your mind.

Dream interpretations should not be sought from pagan sources or the wisdom of men, because the interpretations will be wrong and it’s a sin for Christians to seek for help from demonic sources.

Dreams come from:

God – when the dream is bright and clear, though God may give you dreams about what the dark side is planning for you as well; then the dreams won’t be bright but you will know that its purpose is positive – to warn you about the plans of demons against your life.

Your own soul – when you have strong earthly desires or fears, you may receive dreams about them. Recurring dreams are fear dreams which will end when the source of fear is removed.

Satan – demonic dreams are dark and chaotic. You feel uneasy when you get them. You should cancel these dreams in Jesus’ name.

There are four types of dreams:

Dreams about you – when you are the focus of the dream without which the dream wouldn’t make sense.

Dreams about others – when a person, a few people that you know, or a group that you know is the main focus of the dream. You should tell your dreams to them as God has a message to them.

Prophetic dreams – when you dream of maps, symbolic numbers, national symbols, signs in heavens.

Personal prophesy dreams – when a person in the dream addresses you with some message. That message is a prophetic message from God to you.

How to interpret dreams:

You should reduce your dream to a title, to get the main theme of the dream.

Expand it to a few more sentences and you have the story-line which you can then attempt to interpret.

Another good way to interpret your dreams is by…

Breaking down the dream into its basic components

Finding the focus of the dream

Finding its subfocuses

Finding its main details

Simplifying your dreams in such a way helps you to understand their main message, but if you focus on dream details only, you may lose sight of that message.

Dreams about houses are to do with your life or your being, if the house that you see in the dream you consider your own. Dreams about cars are to do with your mission in life or occupation. Dreams of animals, bugs and pests usually warn of coming demonic attacks against you, especially if you see many of them in the dream and their color is dark.

http://www.simonarich.com/what-is-the-gospel/#commentsSat, 16 Sep 2017 15:44:36 +0000http://www.simonarich.com/?p=1866

The word “gospel” is mentioned many times before Jesus’ crucifixion. Jesus Himself preached the gospel before His crucifixion (Matthew 4:23, 9:35, 11:5, 24:14, 26:13 and in other New Testament books).

Gospel is the good news of the kingdom of God (Mark 1:14). And that good news is that the kingdom of God is near. This is the actual gospel – that the kingdom of God is near. The gospel is not that Jesus died for our sins and rose again, but that soon God will come down from heaven to rule the earth.

For people to enter into this coming kingdom, they have to repent so that their sins are forgiven. But they would not really repent until they believe that it’s true – that God indeed is coming soon to rule this earth. Therefore disciples and Jesus urged people to believe this “good news”. In fact, Jesus Himself said that He was sent by the Father for the purpose of spreading the good news of the coming kingdom (Luke 4:43).

But what we see in Christianity today is that people equate gospel with Jesus’ death, burial and resurrection, when this isn’t the main part of the gospel.

So before the death of Jesus the main gospel was preached, but the gospel wasn’t complete yet. The revelation of the complete gospel came only after the death of Jesus. Some aspects of that missing part were disclosed by Jesus when His death was approaching (John 12:32), when He told that when He would be lifted up He would draw all men to Himself. He also said that those who would believe in the Son of man when He is lifted up, should not perish but have eternal life (John 3:15).

Disciples did not understand how this could be, because they read the prophesies with fleshly eyes and not with spiritual understanding. And the resurrection of Jesus was something that nobody have expected to happen, and it’s understandable because there are only a few mystical verses about this event, such as in Isaiah 53 or a more direct one in Psalm 16:10 which says that God will not abandon His soul in Sheol because He will not allow His Holy One to see corruption.

Afikomen – the broken bread of the Passover as a symbol of Jesus’ broken body

Also, the middle broken Passover bread called “afikomen” which is hidden and then revealed was a shadow of Christ’s resurrection.

The name “afikomen” actually means “the coming one”.

Jesus broke this bread before His crucifixion and told that it was His body that would be broken for us (1 Corinthians 11:24).

So He Himself explained the meaning of that Passover ritual because it’s unlikely that without His help the disciples would figure it out.

Though Jesus told about His resurrection, it would just fly over the heads of His disciples because it was something completely foreign to their understanding of the Messiah. They did not even believe the women, the first witnesses of resurrection, who reported that Jesus rose from the dead, and they were only convinced when they saw the resurrected Jesus with their own eyes.

The misunderstood first coming of the Messiah

Jews rejected Jesus because He did not come to them as a glorious King promising to establish the kingdom of Israel. Instead, He came as a servant, and was meek and lowly. They did not understand that the first lowly coming paved the way to the second glorious one, as, according to the spiritual law of God, he who exalts himself will be abased and the one who humbles himself will be exalted (Luke 14:11). Therefore they rejected their own king they’ve been waiting for since the prophesies.

Disciples did not understand the plan of salvation because of their strong belief in the way that the salvation was supposed to take place. They believed that Jesus would become an actual king of the Jews and would save them from their Roman oppressors and bring peace and plenty at His first coming, and that He would be a strong and glorious earthly king who would establish a strong Jewish kingdom.

They held this belief all the time that Jesus was with them, and what’s even more surprising, they held the same view even after His resurrection (Acts 1:6).

The reason they did not understand the purpose of His first coming was because they focused on the Old Testament prophesies of the glorious second coming of the Anointed One, and they did not pay attention to the prophesies of the Anointed One coming as a servant, and being hated, and people not believing in what He has accomplished (Isaiah 53). So they saw in Scripture what they wanted to see, and ignored the passages which pointed to the lowly coming of the Messiah.

They focused on the prophesies of His second coming, and therefore did not understand the purpose of His first coming. His first coming was about preparing the people to enter into the kingdom of God. His second coming would be about establishing the kingdom of God.

This kingdom was misunderstood by Jews because they thought it to be an earthly kingdom that had nothing to do with heaven. But Jesus came to prepare us for the heavenly rule of this earth and for the city that will descend from heavens at the end of the world. That’s why we pray that God’s will be done in earth as it is in heaven (Matthew 6:10).

What’s more, during His first coming Jesus made it possible for us not only to be cleansed from our past sins, but also to remain righteous by believing in His Resurrection. This would assure our entry into the kingdom of God.

Jesus Himself said that He is the only way to His Father (John 14:6) and that it’s Him who gives us the keys of the kingdom of heaven (Matthew 16:19); it is the obedience to His words found in Matthew chapter seven that is the strong foundation (Matthew 7:24) which will protect us from the coming destruction.

Why the complete gospel was hidden before Jesus’ crucifixion

I believe that the reason the full gospel was not explained by Jesus was because if Satan knew about it, he would not have influenced people to crucify Him.

Satan, like Israelites, thought that Jesus would come to establish the earthly kingdom. And therefore he made sure that Jesus died. What he did not understand was that through that very death humanity would be saved. That’s why now Satan has great wrath and tries to deceive all, because he has already lost the battle, and he lost it with the action of killing Jesus by which he thought to have secured victory for himself.

There is another similar opinion that the reason why Jesus did not openly declare himself to be the Messiah and revealed the plan of saving mankind was because Jews misunderstood the purpose of His first coming.

Therefore if He would openly declare Himself to be the Messiah, the people and authorities would falsely assume Him to be the awaited earthly king of Israel. He would have been put to death earlier than required, since Romans would perceive Him to be a threat to their rule of Israel.

His early death would result in not fulfilling all the required prophesies of the Messiah’s first coming, so Jesus made sure that His true identity was hidden until the prophesies were fulfilled.

The full plan of His first coming, therefore, was only revealed after His crucifixion, especially through the aid of the Holy Spirit.

So Jesus came to the earth to make known to the people the good news, which is that God will soon come to rule the earth. He came to prepare people to enter into that kingdom. During His time on earth He healed the sick and raised the dead, and cast out demons. He cleansed the people to prepare them to enter into the kingdom of God whole.

Those who repented and believed, were ready for the next stage of their sanctification, which was to receive the Holy Spirit. This became only possible after Jesus’ ascension, because then He prayed to the Father to send the Holy Spirit to the believers (John 14:16).

The Holy Spirit that believers received (and are receiving to this very day) gives strength to believers to continue in holiness, and enables them to persevere and produce good fruit for the coming kingdom. All those who are led by the Holy Spirit are being sanctified all the time if they choose to listen to it, so that they become pleasing living sacrifices to God, and are representatives of Christ on this earth.

Since Jesus became the perfect sacrifice for our sins and rose from the dead and is currently in heaven, we have a merciful High Priest who intercedes for us to the Father all the time, so that Satan’s plans to accuse us, believers, don’t produce any fruit, unless we fail to repent of our sins, thus giving him the right to accuse and afflict us.

Therefore not only did Jesus prepare us to enter into the Kingdom of God through repentance and water baptism, but we also received the baptism of the Holy Spirit as a result of His ascension. So not only our sins are forgiven, but we also received the Spirit of God which continues to strengthen us so that we persevere in faith and good works till the last.

Without this Spirit I do not believe that any human being would be able to continue in faith and good works until their deaths, because Satan works hard to make believers fall, especially if they are in the positions of influence, so it’s only the Spirit of God that upholds us.

For example, I know that I only feel inspired to continue this work and greatly rejoice in it despite of the heavy opposition of unbelievers, Satan, and even some of those who call themselves Christians, is because of the indwelling Holy Spirit, which keeps me at peace and in joy, and gives me high perseverance that I never had before. It gives me strength and joy to continue going forward in difficult times when I know that I myself would have never been able to continue on such a difficult road.

Finally…

Jesus’ resurrection is not the gospel, but the coming kingdom of God is. However, without the resurrection of Jesus this good news would be incomplete because nobody could enter as none are righteous except for Jesus. Therefore Jesus is the way to that kingdom, and so without mentioning His victory over death and Satan the gospel would be incomplete.

The good news, therefore, is the coming kingdom of God, and the way to that kingdom is only through Jesus.

What’s happening in Christianity today is that the gospel for which Jesus Christ was sent and which He ordered to those who believed in Him to preach to others has been replaced with another gospel, which is that of Jesus resurrection only. Paul the apostle warned not to be turned away to another gospel (Galatians 1:8) and that’s exactly what has happened in the mainstream Christianity today.

Satan craftily made it look like preaching the right gospel somehow diminishes the importance of Jesus, but what Jesus Himself would think? Would talking about Him only and ignoring the laws of His Father as well as ignoring His Father’s coming rule be accepted by Jesus as a good thing? I don’t think so.

So the main message is lost, and the focus is on the way that is Jesus, but the way to where? Now Christians either focus on Jesus only or on the end of the world, but I haven’t heard anyone preaching that God is coming to rule this earth so we must prepare. And this is the gospel because of which Jesus was sent to this earth.

Now Christians try to convert unbelievers to Jesus but they miss the entire point of why they’re converting them. And this makes it hard to convert them also, because they do not see any urgency to get converted. Or Christians warn others to repent because we live in the last days, but that also misses the point if the coming rule of God is not preached.

So if we would go back to the Biblical definition of the gospel and would inform people about the coming rule of God, and that in order to qualify as its immortal citizens firstly the belief in God is essential, then in His coming rule, which leads to repentance, which should be followed by water baptism; and then receiving the Messiah as a personal Saviour so that one receives the Holy Spirit which would enable him to continue in holiness and good works, and therefore become a pleasing fruit-producing branch to the Father which would be kept, instead of being burnt.

Therefore I encourage everyone to primarily focus on this true gospel, because Jesus Himself told that first we should seek the kingdom of God and His righteousness (Matthew 6:33). This should be the primary focus for Christians, to understand the Kingdom, and to preach the coming rule of God.

I don’t think Jesus appreciates Christians throwing away the main gospel for which He was sent. Let’s be His good servants by making understanding, preparing for, and preaching the coming rule of God our priority.

http://www.simonarich.com/personal-update-on-my-travels/#commentsTue, 12 Sep 2017 16:38:27 +0000http://www.simonarich.com/?p=1861
These last three months I spent in Malaysia. Firstly I went to Cameron Highlands, as I’ve been planning to visit this place for some time. Unfortunately, the town didn’t turn out to be what it looked like in the pictures. It was a sad place to stay, because people were miserable there, and all their lives revolved around overeating, buying stuff they didn’t need, smoking (it felt like living in a giant ashtray, and even women smoked) and doing other things that cannot lead to real fulfilment.

Malaysia is a Muslim country, and staying among Muslims taught me that their religion is purely mental. The reason they believe in Allah is because from the very childhood they were indoctrinated to believe in him. It’s nothing about experience, but all about thought. They are simply brainwashed to believe it, and every day they receive a dose of that conditioning through Quran and religious people.

They behaved just like any other pagan nation, seeking for fulfilment in material things and experiences. Even backslid born-again Christians might search for happiness in the world, so this only leaves sanctified born-again Christians who feel filled because of their communion with God and Jesus.

In Cameron Highlands I came to know a few Christians. One man was truly born again (he was from South India, but living in Malaysia) but unfortunately he was backslid and did not even know it because of his belief in the grace-only doctrine. So he did not consider it a sin to be drunk sometimes or to lustfully look at other women; he ignored Bible passages which say that no drunkard would enter into the kingdom of God.

When I tried to explain to him and another Christian lady that the law is still valid, I was met with huge opposition. The lady’s expression looked like she’s just eaten sour grapes. She thought the law to be something unclean and to be avoided, something that only Jews have to do.

The Catholic church that I’ve visited was home to unconverted natural people. I saw people praying to the statue of Mary, smoking near the church, and taking kids there as a kind of a family thing to do on a holiday. When I went to a protestant church, I wasn’t welcome there, which is a sign of unconverted people; because when a born-again Christian meets a born-again Christian, it’s like meeting a family member and the warmth and love is there.

Yet the leader of the church treated me like a stranger, and didn’t like the fact that I told him that worship services are supposed to be held on the Sabbath and not Sunday. He told that it’s more convenient for people to have a Sunday service. So they look at the convenience of men and ignore what God ordered. Who gave them the jobs in the first place?

So I find it more sad to visit churches than not to visit them at all, because churches are filled with religious unsaved people who do not want to obey God and they go to churches because they want to socialize with other Christians or because they want to be seen as religious, and not because they love God. This makes me very sad.

God has arranged the next place of visit

Since my own planning led me to that horrible place, instead of going next to Kuala Lumpur, the capital of Malaysia, which I planned to visit next, I decided to pray instead and to be guided by God about where to go next. I’m glad that I did it, because when I was ready to enquire about a ticket to Kuala Lumpur after a prayer, my attention was caught by another place about which I knew nothing, but I was drawn to it. After a few more confirmations I understood that this was the place where God wanted me to visit next, and it was Georgetown.

That was a wonderful little town, and since I asked God to guide all my steps, my entire time there was a success. I got there by bus, and then me and a group of other tourists were dropped at the main bus station from which we were supposed to catch a bus to that town. It’s a long story, but what happened was that we were told false information about which bus to take, and I was led by the Holy Spirit to take one bus which I assumed would take me to the ferry from where I will get to the destination, so I boarded it and other tourists saw it so they did it too:)

But that bus was the correct one taking us right to that town, so those people assumed I knew what I was doing, when actually I had no idea that that bus would take us to the city. I was the last one to realize that, to be honest, because as the bus was approaching the end of town only then I got off, but it was the right choice because it was in that location that I’ve found the hotel that was perfect for me!

So God was guiding me all this time, and though my thought process was faulty, it wasn’t it that guided me, therefore despite of it I was led to the right place. I found a large old house that was converted to the hotel, and I got an amazing deal for a large room with a shower. I loved that place so much that I stayed there for more than a month.

It was run by Chinese people and they were very interested in me, because as a born-again Christian I’m trying to get sanctified and people usually notice something different about me. So they started asking me questions about my personal life, and I had a chance to tell that I’m writing about Christianity. I believe I left a right impression about Christians, so I hope that the seed has been sown in their minds.

Witnessing to a couple

I’ve also got a chance to witness for a couple that I believe was arranged by God. That evening I didn’t want to go to the restaurant because it was really late, but I felt hungry so I decided to go out. The restaurant that I chose was full, but I managed to get a table. Then a couple approached me asking if I can share a table with them, to which I agreed.

They looked like Chinese, but I wasn’t sure. Conversation turned to my employment, and therefore we started discussing Christianity. I told about my conversion process and the fact that I’ve found out that the spirit beings that new-agers, Buddhists and other non-Christians see and sometimes worship are all demons.

The man was defensive about it and claimed that the reason my opinion is so bad about those spirits was because I wasn’t trained under the right guru, and I told that no guru could help because the problem is not the qualification of a guru but that that whole realm is demonic. The lady believed and was quite concerned, because they were involved in worshipping those demons. But the man remained defensive. I hope that I’ve sown a seed into that lady’s mind.

Demons addressed me during the fast

It was in this town that I did my dry fasting and praying. During my dry fast I’ve managed to expel many evil spirits, and when I was getting relaxed in order to sleep, I as though was in a vision, but it felt very real. It was definitely not a dream, but more like half-vision and half-reality – sometimes it’s hard to tell. And in that experience demons themselves within me addressed me, and this never happened before. They told me something along the lines of “You won’t be able to cast us out, for we are many”.

When I heard this I knew that they are lying and that the reason they told this was because I was destroying their stronghold and therefore they were afraid that they would be expelled. So they told this in order to make me lose hope so that I give up and leave them alone. This encouraged me even more to expel them, and it was the Holy Spirit, which, after their words, made me forcefully expel air out of my lungs two times and I felt many of them come out.

Interestingly, I heard those spirits talking between each other and they called me a pastor! That was so funny to hear.

So this experience made me very happy, because if demons themselves address me, it shows to me that they are afraid that their power structure is being destroyed, and this makes me believe that my freedom is very close. I feel so much better than before this second cleansing period that started when I cancelled the agreement with my spirit spouse.

Demons addressing me from the outside

Since demons find it hard to influence me from inside, there is greater demonic activity from the outside. Demons are getting desperate in trying to make me revert back to the way that I was, as the old man is being put to death in me. Therefore I get demonized people approaching me for weird reasons.

For example, in Georgetown one day I went to eat in a South Indian restaurant. After I finished eating one man came from the kitchen (the staff were all South Indians, either from Tamil Nadu or Kerala) and started showing me from the menu which food I can eat. He knew that I just finished eating, because he saw that. But he decided to continue questioning me about what food I was going to eat, and I saw from his expression that he just tried to annoy me. Then, to my surprise, a cashier man joined him, and in his expression I also saw a demon. And they both just stood there talking nonsense to me and trying to provoke me to anger or any other emotion.

I looked back to see if other customers noticed something strange about them, and they did. So those were the demons who tried to make me react – they were getting desperate about losing control over me. This time it again didn’t work, because I refused to react to those two men in any way, and after some time they had to leave me.

Another similar thing happened in Georgetown in a store. I wanted to buy some dates, and I was looking through the glass counter which type of dates to buy. An Indian woman was standing near the counter, blocking the view of some of the dates. She obviously saw that I wanted to see which dates those were, but she purposefully refused to move until I would look at her. So I looked, and I was met with the look full of anger and contempt. She was full of rage and hatred. I’ve never met her in my life; it was obviously a demon looking at me through her, wanting for me to see how much the dark side hates me.

Don’t react to a person but to a demon in a person

When such things happen, it’s important to remember, as Brenda said (Submissive Wife YouTube channel) that we should not focus on the people but on the demons that control those people. Unsaved people usually have no idea that they are used by demons.

They believe that it’s them that hate people – they do not know that it’s demons in them that do. So it’s important not to hurt those people but to pray against the demons in them instead. Demons want us to react to vessels and to miss the forces that control those vessels. Let’s not allow Satan to fool us this way.

A sign that a spiritual tie with a demon is in your life

Since I’ve mentioned Brenda, another great insight that she shared in one of her videos was about the dynamics of a relationship which indicate the existence of a spiritual tie. If some person feels like they own you and they treat you as though you were a doormat, and you allow it, it means that the spirit which controls you through that person has legal grounds in your life and has a legal right to treat you this way.

So it’s very important to pray about it so that God helps you to find that legal agreement with the spirit and to break it. When you break that agreement, the people who felt like they have the right to control you will leave your life. They will either leave you, or you will feel compelled to break the relationship with them.

My trip to Nepal

Since my prayer in Jesus’ name for God to direct all my steps proved to be very successful, I’ve decided to pray about my coming trip to Nepal. I asked God to show it if was in His will for me to go there, and if so, where I should go once I’m there. I asked for God to direct all my steps in Nepal if it’s in His will that I go there.

The prayer proved to be successful again. I booked the international flight to Kathmandu before the prayer, and it was a little bumpy but apart from that it was good. After the prayer I also felt led to book a domestic flight rather than a bus; I was thinking about taking the bus because it would save a lot of money, but that choice really didn’t feel right.

Plus, it’s a rainy season in Nepal and the bus journey would involve taking some dangerous mountain roads. It would be a six-hour journey, and if some car would break down on a narrow mountain road, the journey could take up to twelve hours. So for the sake of convenience the flight made more sense, and it just felt like the right thing to do. I also managed to book it online (which can be hard to do for domestic Nepal flights) and I got a discount as well.

The flight was great – it was the second time I flew in a small airplane. When I landed and left the airport, a minute or two after walking on the main road the bus stopped right next to me, and it was headed right to my destination. The first hotel that I checked out was perfect, because I was given a great price for the room and the room was freshly painted; I asked God in a prayer to give me a good room to make my videos from, because in Asia many hotels neglect repainting walls as Asian people are usually more oriented towards the practical and not the aesthetical side of things unless we are talking about luxury hotels.

So all my prayers were answered! It’s so important to pray for God to guide all your steps, because God wants all the best for you. If you don’t ask Him to guide you, He will allow you to make mistakes until you come to the conclusion that you should ask for His guidance!

Prophetic dreams

Even when I just landed in Kathmandu, I was picked up by a taxi driver that was driving his relative so I got a discount for taking me to the main tourist part of the town. And when I was there, I got a great price for a room located in a quiet place, which is hard to find in that part of town (Thamel).

On that first night that I got to Kathmandu I was exhausted after my travels, so I had a great sleep. And I had three very important dreams that night which were prophetic dreams. The first one showed that success is close. The second showed that in order to achieve what the first dream showed, I need to burn evil seeds in my life.

In the dream I actually burnt all the seeds and when I was doing it, another person was giving me more information about the seeds. I was glad to see in a dream that those were dry seeds and that none of them were sprouted, because if that would be shown, it would mean that those evil traits are becoming dominant and it would be harder for them to be rooted out of my life.

Therefore the dream showed that when I will be removing evil seeds from my life (which are evil traits, habits, etc.) then people will come with revelations. This has already manifested in my life, about which I will tell next. The third dream was an answer to my many prayers about the relationship between the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, about which I will tell after I describe how the second dream has started already coming true.

Wrong accusation

This happened yesterday, after the domestic flight. I went to one internet cafe to print out some Hebrew lessons, because I try to stay away from computer as much as I can and prefer reading from papers. When I had to pay for my internet usage and printing, the owner of the cafe quoted me a wrong price. I corrected him, and he apologized because he said that he forgot that he gave me a discount for larger printing.

But when he quoted me the second price, I assumed he misquoted the price again, and I got unhappy about it and told him that it’s not nice to try to cheat me twice. But it actually turned out that I was in the wrong, because I did not properly look at the internet usage tariff and his second quote was correct!

In India and sometimes in Nepal sellers and business owners in touristy places have the habit of cheating tourists. So I naturally assumed that since the man misquoted the price once, he is likely to try to misquote it again, but this judgement was wrong! Which shows that each person should be taken as an individual instead of being judged by the general traits of a particular population.

As I left the internet cafe and was heading back to my hotel, the Holy Spirit convicted me. I was quite far away from the cafe when I started feeling that I could not go to my hotel and that I needed to go back to the internet cafe and apologize to the owner for falsely accusing him of cheating.

Also Bible verses came into my mind of Jesus asking people to apologize for any wrong-doing, because otherwise those wronged people might give you over to the judge, and you will not come out of the prison until you pay the last penny. This was a scary thought, and I knew that I had no choice but to go back and to apologize.

I felt so uncomfortable, since I didn’t know the man, and there was another woman using internet there, but nevertheless I went back and I told that I was in the wrong about the internet price and that he gave me the right price, and that I was sorry for telling to him that he cheated me.

He was happy to see me apologizing, and he brushed my behaviour off as nothing to worry about.

I almost started crying, because I felt such a relief in my heart. I walked away so happy, and instantly I knew that I just burnt some of the evil seeds shown in the dream.

I became aware that God was showing me the seed of pride, unpleasant behavior, the tendency to revenge, wrong judgement and anger. I became aware of these seeds because this revelation was given by God as a result of me going back and apologizing. This is very similar to how I was blessed by God with the revelation about my spirit spouse which I was given after going back and donating to the poor. So I see the pattern here – when you do the right thing despite of how uncomfortable you may feel about it, God will bless you.

And when I came back to my hotel, I checked my website and I found a new comment by brother Robert, who gave me a further revelation about evil spirits and how to fight them. Therefore what was shown in the dream came true – that when I burn seeds a person will come giving more information about how to fight the dark side. The comment that I got can be seen here (look for Robert’s comment), and I hope that if you read it, it will bless you as much as it has blessed me.

The dream about the relationship between Jesus and God

The third dream was the answer to my many prayers about the relationship between the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. I know that many people are confused about it, and I do not want to have the wrong understanding of it either. So I prayed to God in Jesus’ name to reveal to me what my relationship should be to the Son and Him, whether I can pray to Jesus, and what exactly is the function of the Holy Spirit in this relationship. I prayed this prayer many times, and a few days ago I got a clear answer.

In the dream I was in a room with a few people. I was sitting on a chair and in front of me sat a man. A large table was separating us. I did not speak to him at first, but I spoke to my ex (the psychopath). Although I spoke to my ex, I sometimes would look at the man and he never took his eyes off me. It wasn’t like some mad person’s stare, but it was a neutral but intense focus on me. So every time I would look, his eyes would be on me – he never took his eyes off me. I found this very surprising.

Then my ex addressed the man with a question, but the man totally ignored him, as though my ex wasn’t even there. Then my ex left the room. When this happened, the man addressed me. He asked me one question, I believe it was about why I lived in India, or something like this. But it wasn’t the question that mattered, which you will understand soon.

As soon as he addressed me, I felt naked before him. I was wearing clothes, but his piercing look made me feel naked and I actually was unable to address him back but I had to excuse myself and go to another room to find some more clothes to cover myself with. I was already wearing a head covering, but I felt the need to put some covering over my shoulders and chest. I already wore a dark blue top, but I felt that I should put an extra dark blue scarf over it, so I did.

Then I went back to the room, but instead of sitting where I sat before, I felt it more comfortable to go to the back of the room where the couch was. There sat the man’s son, who had blond hair and he was around seven years old.

I felt much more comfortable with him, and whenever I would address him, he would not answer but the father would answer. So I would talk to him, and then the Father would answer, or ask other questions. When I sat there, his questions no longer felt intimidating and I enjoyed being near his son. And then a woman, who was invisible, would give me advice about what I was discussing with them two.

This dream was very easy to interpret. The father was my Heavenly Father, the son was Jesus, and the invisible woman sitting on my right – the Holy spirit. I was sitting in the middle, and the son was on my left. I was very close to the son, almost touching him.

This dream showed that although I am saved (head covering), I’m not righteous enough to address the father directly. I put on the scarf over the chest, which is the breastplate of righteousness; but the Bible says that our righteousness is in Jesus. I spoke to Jesus and this made me avoid that penetrating look of the Father; it felt much more comfortable to speak to the son because he was a child, and he did not have that penetrating look that made me feel naked.

And when I spoke to the son, the father heard me and answered me, because were were all in the same room. Which showed that during the prayer, when I address Jesus, the Father always hears because they are always together, and the Holy Spirit gives revelations/insights about the conversation as well.

It was also interesting how the man in the dream reacted to the question posed by my ex. He ignored him completely! Which showed to me what happens when unbelievers pray.

Therefore despite of my conviction that people should not pray to Jesus, in my dream I was shown quite the opposite. Since this dream was so different to what I believed, I asked in the prayer to receive further confirmation whether my dream interpretation was correct.

And I was led to Bible verses which proved that apostles and early believers did pray to Jesus. For example, Stephen, before dying, addressed Lord Jesus and asked Him to receive His Spirit (Acts 7:59). In 2 Corinthians 12:8 we find Paul praying to Jesus (because He addressed him as “Lord” which is the apostles’ title for Jesus) to make the messenger of Satan that was in his flesh to depart from him.

So my dream and these Bible verses show that people can pray to Jesus. I will keep seeking further clarification on this, because this is very different from what I believe, but I also encourage you to seek guidance about it as well.

My current studies

I continue to study Hebrew, but I received warning dreams that I must focus on Hebrew much more than I do now. Since the subject is getting dry at the moment, since I’m getting into grammar, I tend to shorten the time I spend on learning Hebrew. But this is a mistake, since straight after being born-again it was put on my heart to learn this language well. Therefore I will try to spend much more time on Hebrew than I currently do.

I also continue reading about the history of Babylon because this gives me a better understanding of the Bible. What’s more, I study dream interpretation, but the time for these studies will have to be reduced because I should focus more on Hebrew.

Finally, I try to learn to tune into the Holy Spirit and to understand the sensations that I get from it, because this is my guidance system in life. I’m learning how it feels when it positively responds to something (when I get the same feeling that I do when I pray), and when it negatively responds to something (it feels like it becomes more compacted, that’s the best way I can describe it).

It was the close attention to how the Holy Spirit feels that made me book the domestic flight – it was very easy to think about booking the flight, but there was resistance within when I was thinking about taking a bus. So by tuning into it before making decisions I’m learning how it responds and what to do with regards to its responses.

Power vs. authority

I would again like to recommend the materials of John Paul Jackson. I feel so blessed for having found this wonderful teacher, and I feel sad that he passed away just recently, as I would have really liked to meet him in this life. He was a true child of God, and he was sanctified to a high degree, therefore I recommend his materials to all the believers who try to lead a life pleasing to God.

I especially enjoyed his teaching on power versus authority. Many Christians do not have enough authority to cast out demons, because they don’t even seek for it. And that’s because of Bible mistranslations. In KJV we find the Greek word that stands for “authority” translated as “power”, and sometimes these words are confused and where it says “authority”, it’s translated as “power”, and vice versa.

It’s important to understand that if a person has little authority but great spiritual power he will be still unable to cast out strong demons or do great healings. That’s because it’s the authority that demons obey and not power. Power is only good if it’s greater than demonic power. But demons did not lose their power when they were cast out – they just lost their authority. So if their power is greater than yours, you won’t be able to cast them out unless you have the authority to do this.

It’s the authority that Jesus gave to the disciples over all the power of the enemy (Luke 10:19), which shows that authority is greater than power. Therefore highly anointed people might still lose battles with Satan because the authority is lacking. To get that authority one needs to be close to God, because it’s the matter of proximity. The closer to God you are, the greater the authority you will have. Because Jesus was always close to the Father, He had great authority.

When we make a habit of praying for long periods of time to get close to God and try to get close to Him in other ways, our authority will keep increasing until we can cast out even the most powerful demons and do the most incredible miracles and healings.

Finally…

I would like to thank all the readers who support my work through donations. Thank you very much, I really appreciate this as it helps to meet my daily needs and it shows that my work benefits you. I also would like to thank the reader who decided to donate on a monthly basis.

So these are all the updates that I wanted to share with you. I hope that you’ve learnt something useful from my experiences and that this post blessed you in some way.

In this post I will try to explain how I understand what the kingdom of God is, and explain Jesus’ words about the Kingdom of God being in us.

When we look up the Greek word “kingdom”, we find that it usually means “rule” or “dominion”, and not an actual physical kingdom. This is important, and to really understand many verses of the Bible about the kingdom, it’s better to replace that word with the mentioned nouns or the noun “royal power”.

Firstly I would like to explain the reason why the kingdom of God is being manifested in this world the way that it is.

We read that at first God tried to establish His rule on Earth, which is the Kingdom of God, through Israel:

Now therefore, if ye will obey my voice indeed, and keep my covenant, then ye shall be a peculiar treasure unto me above all people: for all the earth is mine:

And ye shall be unto me a kingdom of priests, and an holy nation. These are the words which thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel.

Exo 19:5-6

Israel was supposed to become the priests of the earth through whom the will of God would be done on earth. So they were supposed to be the people through whom the rule of heaven is implemented on earth. This failed because the people of Israel did not obey the Torah. God divorced Israel (Jeremiah 3:8) but also promised that a new covenant will be given to them (Jeremiah 31:31) after some time, when His wrath would be no more.

He told that that new covenant will be the Torah no longer given on stone but written on the tablets of their hearts (Jeremiah 31:33), and that’s why it’s called “new”. It was a new way of giving the Torah that would be much more effective than how it was given before.

This new covenant came through Jesus, because as a result of His resurrection and ascension, believers were given the Holy Spirit which establishes the heavenly rule in believers and their hearts become sensitive to the living Torah. So they’re no longer natural men that need to be restrained with the external law, but they become new creatures who want to be obedient and become obedient to the law if they allow themselves to be transformed through the Spirit living in them.

So there’s a big difference in new and old covenants; because people under the old covenant found the Torah difficult to obey, but under the new covenant believers have the Holy Spirit which helps them to be obedient and because of its presence they want to be obedient to the law. What’s more, the failure to observe the law no longer requires blood sacrifice or even being stoned to death, but only sincere repentance because Jesus has become the High Priest always interceding for us before the Father (Hebrews 4:14; 7:25).

So although the rule of God was rejected by Israel, all the nations can be reconciled with the Most High through Jesus. Since they die to the law when they are baptized, the law no longer condemns them. And when they receive the Holy Spirit, the heavenly rule starts being established in their very souls.

Therefore God wanted to establish His heavenly rule on earth through Israelites, but they were disobedient and failed to become the priests of the Most High on earth. Yet this new covenant is going to succeed, because it changes the person from the inside and not outside – through his very own heart and the regeneration of his spirit.

The Kingdom of God is now being implemented through obeying the Torah written on the tablets of believers’ hearts. And the Holy Spirit gives the believers the strength to overcome the temptations of the world which would render them ineffective.

Jesus said that the Kingdom of God is within you (Luke 17:21), and it is true. Every believer who receives the Holy Spirit starts being ruled by God and not the world – if they allow this to happen. Therefore the heavenly rule, the Kingdom of God, becomes established in them, and they become the lights of the world, by their actions and words defeating the darkness of this world and preparing it for the literal reign of God.

In the Bible we read that God overlooked the foolishness of false religions for a long time (Acts 17:30), but now everywhere men are required to repent and change these ignorant ways, as they are prepared to enter into the kingdom of God.

The purpose of the Holy Spirit gifts

The Holy Spirit gifts of raising the dead, casting out demons and healing are given to us so that unbelievers would encounter the power of God and this would make them believe in Him; it is given to us so that unbelievers can be saved and enter into an actual kingdom of God that will come at the end of the world.

Therefore it is ignorant for some pastors to teach that the Holy Spirit gifts are no more. They will exist as long as this heaven and earth stand; because these are the tools through which we convert unbelievers. When there would be no unbelievers but all will serve the living God, then only those gifts will lose their purpose and therefore will be no more. But this will only happen when the literal rule of God comes to this earth.

We find in the New Testament that the largest conversions to Christianity occurred when people would witness the power of God working through the believers. Exercise of the Holy Spirit gifts causes mass conversions. Pastors do a great harm to believers when they make them think that their gifts are non-existent, or even worse, come from Satan, because then believers neglect to develop them and therefore do not use the power they are given to bring many people into the kingdom of God.

Preparation for the kingdom

Those believers who receive the Holy Spirit are already the citizens of the kingdom of God, and the actual entry will be only a formality if they continue in faith.

I’m talking only about those believers who allow that kingdom to rule them, and not about the ones that ignore this rule and choose the ways of the world. Because it’s told in the Bible that those acting like a dog who returns to its own vomit will suffer from the end that’s worse than the one they would have experienced before knowing Jesus (2 Peter 2:20-22).

So those who allow themselves to be sanctified through the Holy Spirit and become holy, which means separate and different from the world, allow the rule of heaven, the kingdom of God, to be established within them, and therefore they become the lights of the world showing others the way.

Those are indeed already citizens of the New Jerusalem, and they help others to become such citizens as well.

Therefore the kingdom of God is not only the actual rule of God on this earth that will surely happen in the future, but the kingdom of God is happening now in those who have been transformed after accepting Jesus and have become the new creation, the future citizens of the New Jerusalem.

Many Christians pray a daily prayer that includes words “Thy will be done in earth as it is in heaven”, but how many really allow the will of God to be done in their lives? Because the change on earth happens through the efforts of each individual, and a person who refuses to be ruled by God but recites this prayer anyway is a hypocrite.

Sanctification first starts externally and then it moves deeper and deeper into the person. You will be sanctified in appearance first: you will stop using make up, jewelry, wearing inappropriate clothes; when you comply with this, you will then start being sanctified in your mind, YHWH changing selfish patterns of the mind and cleansing it from all impurities of traits such as vanity, hatred, competition, pride and so forth.

And then it moves into the deepest levels of self where it destroys the very selfishness that’s of Satan which drives us to use our own wisdom to survive in this world, the trait that was with us since our fall.

This especially applies to self-sufficiency, and destroys it so that the person relies on no one else but God, and this is the final sanctification that very few will have the strength to go through, but since Jesus asked us to follow Him, and He broke in himself His soul’s desire and was obedient till His very death though that wasn’t His will (Luke 22:42), so should we follow His steps to be sanctified and glorified as He was.

Therefore the rule of heaven starts within each individual, and now most Christians resist even the most basic requirements of sanctification, like not looking like the world, and not being lukewarm because of the different opinions of the world about religion and righteousness. Many Christians are quick to betray what they stand for (thus betraying Jesus) whenever they are challenged by a pagan public opinion. I don’t think Jesus would take it lightly on the day of judgement, because He said that those who deny Him will be denied by Him before His Father (Matthew 10:33).

How can any other deeper sanctification take place if Christians rebel against these most basic things they have to get rid of in their lives? How could this happen if the core within them bends and twists whenever pagans challenge what they stand for? Therefore I know that only very few will get fully sanctified, and become real living sacrifices to God. (Romans 12:1).

The Kingdom of God is come down to the earth through all believers. We are given the power to bind and loose, and whatever we bind on earth, it will be bound to in heaven, and whatever we loose on earth, will be loosed in heaven. This proves that we are already rulers in heavens, and through our good actions on this earth we establish that heavenly rule on earth.

Being saved and continuing to live as the world makes Christians lose the whole purpose of them being saved. They become as salt which has lost its savour (Matthew 5:13). We are saved for the purpose of preparing others for the kingdom of God and allowing the kingdom of God to be manifested through us. If we don’t do this, we cannot expect God to tell these words about us:

Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.

(Matthew 25:21)

If we cannot be faithful even in those few things He expects us to do in this world, we will be like a servant who did not make profit from the talent that he was given by God, and who received this answer from God as a result of his failure to be productive for the Kingdom of God:

Thou wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not strawed:

Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and then at my coming I should have received mine own with usury.

Take therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him which hath ten talents.

For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath.

And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

(Matthew 25:26-30)

I think it’s important to pay attention to the parables in the Bible that are to do with our usefulness for the kingdom of God. We are seen as plants which are expected to produce good fruit. And those who don’t, are gathered by angels to be burnt. Only those who are useful are gathered into the barns.

I had two plants that I use for my skincare. These are two aloe vera plants. One of them recently stopped growing, and after watering it and observing if it starts growing, I eventually had to throw it away because it has become useless – despite of my attempts to increase its growth.

As soon as I decided that the plant would no longer be useful and therefore I would need to throw it away, I remembered that God also expects us to produce fruit, and those who don’t produce fruits, are seen as good for nothing. It was easy for me to throw that plant into the bin because it wasn’t contributing to anything good; so I believe it will be the same in the last days. Those who think that God owes them something and who don’t think it important to contribute to the kingdom in some way, will be treated as those plants who are good for nothing.

So let’s allow the rule of heaven to be established in our hearts, minds and bodies, so that we become living sacrifices to God and that our Heavenly Father is pleased with us. Let’s allow the rule of Heaven to be established in ourselves so that we preserve our spirit, soul and body whole for entering into life (1 Thessalonians 5:23).

Let’s develop every single gift we are given for the glory of God, and I’m not talking only about the gifts of the Holy Spirit but the gifts we had since our birth or later. If you have a beautiful voice, sing to God so that others through you get closer to the Heavenly Father. If you have the talent to write books, write about God. If you have teaching ability, teach about God. If you inspire people, inspire them to get closer to God.

And, of course, we should always use the gifts of the Holy Spirit to destroy the works of the devil and to establish the rule of God on earth. We should not be afraid to confront those who teach children to live in sin, like for them to tolerate and accept homosexuality. We should cast out demons from people if we are called into such ministry. We should share our prophetic visions and dreams if they indeed come from God for the edification of the whole body of Christ. We should not be afraid to confront false preachers who are responsible for scattering the sheep.

We should strive to develop and manifest the gifts of the Holy Spirit for the glory of God and for making unbelievers turn to our Heavenly Father as a result, for the gifts of the Holy Spirit are direct manifestations of God.

Since most Christians don’t have the Holy Spirit as a result of false teachings of pastors, churches have become powerless, as the Holy Spirit is not there. So there’s no reason for unbelievers to be converted, because anyone can talk, but it’s the actions that people pay more attention to. So if pastors and born-again believers start really aligning themselves to the will of God, they will gain power and authority from God to do extraordinary healings and other divine works, which will provide the reason for others to turn to faith.

Let’s maximize the God-given potentials in this life so that we contribute to the best of our ability towards establishing the rule of heaven on this earth, so that in the life to come we are given five or ten times the responsibility we had on this earth as a result of being faithful servants of God and helping to establish His rule on earth through firstly allowing the Most High to establish His rule in ourselves.

http://www.simonarich.com/dangerous-teaching-in-christianity/#commentsTue, 05 Sep 2017 01:45:22 +0000http://www.simonarich.com/?p=1838
One of the most dangerous teachings that I’ve heard in Christian circles is some Christians claiming that saved people cannot have demons.

I call this belief dangerous because of two reasons: it might cause saved people to doubt their salvation and we must keep our faith until our deaths to be given the crown of life (Revelation 2:10).

Another reason why this teaching is dangerous is because this might make people think that they are saved when they are not. If a definite change in kingdoms doesn’t take place, you still belong to Satan.

Such teaching has no Biblical basis, because Jesus told that He was the only one who had nothing of Satan in Him (John 14:30). That’s the reason Sheol could not hold him and Satan had to hand the keys of hell over to Him.

Jesus also knew what was in man (John 2:25) therefore he needed no man to testify of Him. What was in man that Jesus talked about? If Jesus said that he had nothing of Satan in Him, and that He knew what was in man, I believe those were the demons that He was talking about.

Since the fall, all humanity became enslaved to Satan. Everyone automatically belongs to Satan until they are born again. Only when you receive the Holy Spirit the change of kingdoms takes place, because the Holy Spirit moves into you and causes massive unrest of demons that dwelt in you sometimes from your very birth.

Although God’s laws protect from Satan, they don’t protect from generational curses and demons. Therefore even if you would have observed Torah from your very childhood, your family would be automatically cursed if someone in your past generations would be involved in witchcraft. That’s because God cursed such people up to the third or fourth generation (Exodus 20:5).

So even though you have been living like a saint from your very childhood, demons might still be in your bloodline and will remain there until you break the curse by apologizing to God for your past generations’ mistakes and burn those evil covenants with the fire from Heaven.

In the Bible we read Jesus and apostles casting out demons only in the most serious cases, and the same applies to healing. We find them healing major illnesses with the exception of Peter’s mother in law who was healed of fever (Matthew 8:14). So with the exception of that healing, we find them healing withered hands, blindness, inability to walk, or even raising the dead.

The same is the case with demons – only major cases were dealt with, when people would cast themselves into fire, or when they were totally possessed and would therefore cut themselves and act as though they had lost their minds.

So this makes me believe that Jesus and apostles only healed those who were in most trouble. If they would have to spend time healing people of minor illnesses and casting out minor demons, they would not be able to travel anywhere because every single person in Jerusalem would require some healing work.

So the facts that:

Jesus was the only person that had nothing of Satan in Him

Jesus knew what was in man

He and apostles healed only people most severely affected by demons

… shows us that the claim that Christians cannot have demons has no Biblical basis.

We are also exhorted in the New Testament to continuously fight sin and put the old man to death. How would that be possible if no demons would dwell in us, which cause us to sin? Don’t be mistaken about it – it’s the demons that cause people to lust, masturbate, smoke, overeat and commit other sins.

Demons cannot be satisfied no matter how much they indulge themselves, as we read in the Book of Enoch:

And the spirits of the giants afflict, oppress, destroy, attack, do battle, and work destruction on the earth, and cause trouble: they take no food, ⌈but nevertheless hunger⌉ and thirst, and cause offences.

People mistakenly think that it’s them who desire fornication, eating when they are not hungry, and smoking. These are ever-hungry demons in them who use people as vessels to satisfy themselves through, yet they never can. So they keep those people captive in those harmful habits, and those habits will only leave them when demons are expelled from them.

All unholy things are caused by demons. Even the act of arguing. When you expel many demons from yourself, you become so calm that you would never want to argue with anyone because you would know it’s evil. I’m not talking about reproving sin or feeling righteous indignation, but bickering that people do, or argue for the sake or arguing. Such arguments are caused by demons, and demons drain people through them.

So unless a person lives the life of a saint, then surely they have demons living in them. If they wouldn’t have, Sheol would not be able to hold them and they would resurrect just like Jesus.

A change of kingdoms

When you get saved, a definite change of kingdoms takes place. When you receive the Holy Spirit, you get transferred to the kingdom of God and become the child of God. This causes trembling of demons in your body, because they have just lost you. That doesn’t mean all of them will go, but it means they don’t have the power to drag you to hell after death.

Some demons will leave you after you are saved, but those who have the legal right to dwell in you will stay until those rights are broken. If you live in holiness, God will help you to uncover all such agreements, even marriage agreements with them. If you do something for God (such as helping the poor), God will also do something for you.

You will also feel that when you grow in holiness, the Holy Spirit will get stronger in you and will actually help you to cast out demons by itself. What I mean is that sometimes you might even get visions or dreams of the Holy Spirit casting out demons on its own, or even ordering those demons to leave – this is based on my personal experience.

The reason these days everyone is heavily demonized is because we live in end times. Satan knows his time is short, so his wrath is great and he tries to demonize people to the degree that they would not be able to get saved. He does that by using many methods, like through the music industry, movies, chemicals in the air (chemtrails which load the body with heavy metals), unhealthy food and false religions. It seems that everywhere you turn there is a trap, but the Holy Spirit lights the way and protects you from such snares.

People who have no protection of the Holy Spirit will fall into all these traps and will get heavily demonized. Now many people already act as zombies, so when the mark of the beast will be in place, they will surely get it. Even Christians who don’t live holy and do not recognize the voice of God are at great risk.

We are supposed to be the light of the world, and if the salt has lost its savour, it’s useless. So Christians should do their best to learn to be guided by God only, and not by the trends of the world, money, or their own selves. Only then they would contribute to the Kingdom of God and would be considered good servants.

Spiritual blindness in these days is very dangerous, so it’s very sad to find Christians who don’t believe in demons or who don’t believe that demons can dwell in them. If they don’t believe in demons, then they also don’t believe in Satan; and if they don’t believe in Satan, why would they need a Saviour? Those people aren’t even saved and only follow the Christian tradition because their parents did.

And if they don’t believe that demons can dwell in Christians, this shows to me that the transfer of kingdoms did not take place in their lives, which means that they still belong to Satan, or that they are so spiritually blinded that they did not feel that major change of allegiance. This would be very unusual, because when you are saved your life totally changes. So if that change is not there, I would be very concerned.

It’s told in the Bible to work out our salvation with fear and trembling (Philippians 2:12); so I would advise all people who didn’t experience any real change in their lives after being saved to pray to God to make sure if they have really received the Holy Spirit.

When you receive the Holy Spirit you receive the light of the world. You see the world as it is and you stop living in your head and in concepts. If you were involved in false religions, that spell which you were under breaks and you see those religions for what they were – tools of Satan. And when you receive the Holy Spirit, you know that your life is dedicated to serve Jesus. If you did not feel anything like this, pray to God to reveal to you your spiritual state.

Conclusion

It’s ignorant and dangerous for some Christians to claim that born-again Christians cannot have demons. This shows to me that such Christians follow the traditions of men and not the Bible, and that it’s unlikely that they are saved.

That’s because all humankind belongs to Satan unless they receive the Spirit of God. Which means that all humanity has demons living in them; but those demons do not show themselves because they are comfortable in the bodies of those who belong to Satan.

However, when you get saved, major unrest happens in your body because demons know that they have lost the power to drag you to hell. That doesn’t make them all move out of your body, just the weak ones leave. Those who have legal grounds will stay in your body until the covenants are broken.

If you, after being saved, did not feel that change of kingdoms take place, you are either not saved or you are spiritually blinded. Apostles talked about spiritual battles, the importance of putting away sin and killing the old man, and Paul even disclosed that the thorn of Satan was in Him. How would all such verses be applicable to Christians if after being saved they’re no longer affected by Satan?

As long as people sin, it’s a sign that demons are still in them. Many born-again Christians backslide and have difficulty with ending different sinful habits. This is a clear sign that demons still live in them, but the difference between them and the unsaved people is that born-again believers have the power to cast out demons whilst others have no such authority.

So if born-again believers strive to live holy, they indeed can more and more resemble Christ, and find real freedom in this fallen world. Some deliverance ministers think it impossible for people to be completely free from demons because it’s only Jesus that had nothing of Satan in him; but let’s hope that all of us eventually can be as clean as He was, because Jesus also told that we will do even greater things than Him (John 14:12).

http://www.simonarich.com/fasting-experience-and-tips/#commentsSat, 02 Sep 2017 13:01:20 +0000http://www.simonarich.com/?p=1830
I’m in no way as experienced in fasting as people like Kevin Ewing or Chris Lasala, but since I got some requests to make a video on fasting, I’ve decided to share my own fasting experiences, and give you some tips that might not be thoroughly covered by other people.

Firstly, I should tell you that when I got saved it was easy for me to fast – I fasted one day each week. I believe it was easy for me to fast because I got the gift of perseverance. However, after I sinned, the power of fasting was taken away from me and I only have recovered it nine months after the sin (In the video I accidentally said “nine months ago” but what I meant was that nine months after).

Therefore this yet again taught me how important it is to do everything you can to avoid sinning after being saved, as it’s a huge step backwards and it will take a long time to regain the blessings that you had when you were washed clean first.

So when I sinned I was incapable of fasting at all, and some months after I really tried to fast, and it was only around two months ago that I resumed my regular fasting.

So for the last few months I was attempting to fast twice a week, but not entirely successfully. It would be on Wednesdays and Fridays, and on Wednesdays I would have some light food and on Fridays I would try to fast without any food, but it was not always successful though it’s getting better.

So when I started to again be able to fast at least once a week, that was the time I’ve come across Kevin Ewing’s videos on the benefits of a three-day dry fast, so I decided to try it. I’ve just finished this fast a few days ago of writing the draft of this article.

When I first watched his videos I first decided to do a 24-hour test fast to see if I would be able to go without water. And it was successful. After 24 hours I broke the fast with a meal, and then I regretted soon after because I was thinking that I could have done two more days of fasting rather than leaving it for some other time.

So after a meal I decided to not eat again and attempt a three-day dry fast.

It was going okay until the evening, but then I felt so thirsty that I drank a small quantity of water. And then I fall asleep soon after.

My spiritual state shown in a dream

Since on that day I donated money to a poor person according to the fasting instructions found in Isaiah 58 (I gave the money equivalent of the things God required in that chapter), I got a dream from God showing my spiritual state, because that’s what I wanted to know after seeing my spiritual state the last time I gave money to the poor and God showed me that I had a spirit spouse.

That’s what happens when you give alms. God blesses you, because that’s His promise. And therefore He fulfilled my desire of knowing what my spiritual state is like now.

In the dream I saw that I was in a building that was newly built and it was very strong. All the major building work was finished and it was ready to be decorated. So this showed me that my foundation is now strong, not like how it was when I was into new age, when I would get dreams of my house missing a wall and the flood coming inside my house and almost drowning me:

Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:

And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.

And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand:

And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.

— Matthew 7:24-27

Now it was a totally different picture – the house was proper and I was happy to see such a great state of it. I even smelled how fresh it was – it was just finished being built.

But then I believe it was my brother and his friend that came and poured out a bag of clear water with fish right on its floor, and I rebuked him for doing that, and attempted to catch those fish, and that’s when I woke up. And I knew that that dream showed that my spiritual state is good, I have the right foundation, but I still need to remove some marine kingdom evil spirits from it.

The dream was also connected to the white foamy saliva that I was expelling during fasting and before it. I knew that I had to continue for twelve more hours of dry fasting (the Holy Spirit led me to this), because it would help to dry that phlegm and expel some demons, because demons like to stay in toxic environments.

That phlegm that was coming from my stomach was toxic, and this kind of phlegm provides perfect breeding grounds for bacteria, and demons love such environments. So they not only like to stay in bodies of people who have unclean thoughts or sin, but also in those who have toxins in their bodies.

That’s why demons love to stay in a stomach – because that’s where many toxins accumulate. And if you sometimes overeat or eat unhealthy, be sure you have those toxins there too. Many diseases start in a stomach first, because people overeat, eat bad food or eat too frequently and the undigested food starts rotting.

So when you fast, all those toxins come out, and if you don’t sin, demons no longer have that much of a grip on you, and they will need to leave, unless you decide to desecrate your body temple again by eating unclean or toxic foods.

I’ve almost changed my mind

In the evening of that first proper day of fasting I felt so hungry that my thoughts convinced me to break the fast in the morning. I even made a mental decision to do so, and before going to bed I decided to watch some videos on water kingdom spirits.

The first video that I watched was a testimony of a guy who was involved with marine spirits. In the video he said that he had to fast for five days so that those spirits would not tempt him, and then he said that if he had to fast for that long, how much longer Christians should fast to be able to resist the kingdom of darkness.

I felt that that message was sent by God to me, but I was not entirely sure. And then I watched another video of a woman’s testimony of being involved with marine kingdom spirits, and again, she started talking about the importance of fasting! This time it was so tailored to me, ( she said how important it was to do a three-day fast!) that I could no longer brush it off as a coincidence. There was urgency in those messages that I should continue fasting, so that was the only reason I did not break my fast.

Dry fasting for additional twelve hours after I woke up cleared my sinuses, which was so unusual because I was so used to having my nose blocked. So I enjoyed breathing the air fully and having more clarity in my mind. So in total I dry-fasted for 48 hours and then I started drinking water for the rest of my fast.

Serious body detoxification

On the second day of fasting I also started vomiting out large amounts of bile. At first I did not understand what was happening, but then I researched why this could have taken place, and here’s the best explanation that I’ve found from curezone:

The liver, among other things, is an organ of elimination. The products it takes from the blood are made into bile and poured out as such. When the sick man fasts the liver greatly increases the production of bile and this is poured into the intestine. The quantity and character of bile secreted during a fast as well as its degrees of alkalinity or possible acidity seem to be dependent upon the toxic overload under which the patient is struggling. Habitual hearty eaters, particularly those who consume large quantities of proteins and carbohydrates, produce the most bile and suffer most discomfort as a result.

Observations upon thousands of fasting cases have convinced me that the sooner the “over-production” of bile commences, after the cessation of eating, and the more bile is thrown off, the more rapidly the patient recovers his or her health. The patient is cleaning out.

So dry fasting helped me to really clean my body from toxins that have accumulated due to years of bad eating habits. In the past I was a habitual tea drinker, and before that I loved my daily lattes. Plus, I always loved cakes and ate other sweets on a daily basis. But since now my body is clean, I will try to keep it so, so that I wouldn’t re-create the toxic environment in my body for demons to comfortably dwell in.

I also vomited out some bile around an hour before finishing my three-day fast, so this proved that three days were required for the main cleansing to be done.

During the second day some strong spirit left my body because suddenly my whole body felt totally sick, and I felt strong energy in the form of a ball coming out of my stomach and going up to my throat, and then I felt like some sharp object was in my throat, and I coughed it out. Even when I did a test dry fast, I believe one spirit either got really uncomfortable, or came out, because I felt my stomach to get tightly squeezed and then it got released, and I felt coolness in that area.

In my experience that’s how stronger spirits leave a body, whilst weaker spirits leave through yawning, sneezing and coughing without those additional sensations. I was reading warfare Bible verses throughout those days of fasting and I kept yawning when I would read them or the Bible.

Demonic attacks

During the second night of fasting I got many demon attacks. I got several visions of them disguised as a bird suddenly flying at me, or cardboard boxes falling on my face. Then I saw that through my window some smoke is coming into my room, and at first I did not even realize that it was a vision because it felt so real, but then the Holy Spirit interpreted this to be a spirit coming into the room for real, so I rebuked the demon in Jesus’ name. This happened when I was falling asleep, that’s why I got confused if it was for real or a vision.

There are several reasons why I got so many attacks on that night. Reason number one was that I was in a weakened state during fasting, and Satan likes to attack when people are weak:

But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way.

— Matthew 13:25

Another reason was because I was doing warfare prayer over the principality where I was staying, and I did not know that it’s dangerous to do so. So this is my advice for you – do not directly challenge any powers or principalities that have nothing to do with you unless you get authorized to do so by your Heavenly Father, because if you do this without any authorization, those demons actually will have the right to come and torment you.

I was led to this information through Brandi’s channel as in one of her videos she was reviewing a Christian book teaching about this mistake. I repented for doing that and the attacks finished.

Many dreams during the fast

During the night I received many dreams, and every time demons would tempt me, I would wake up, so I believe it was my Father’s will for me to wake up at that time and cancel all the agreements and rebuke the demons. Now demons usually no longer come with obvious ways to ensnare, like by seducing to have sex with people in dreams or by making some other obvious deal. They know that I know that this would forge a covenant between me and them.

So now they try to get me to agree with them in subtler ways, so that I don’t understand that the covenant was made and therefore a right was given to them to destroy my life. So, for example, I got a dream that a woman promoted her religious group to me by listing all its benefits, and it was supposed to be a Christian group, but because I know the Bible, I knew that her doctrine was not fully aligning with the doctrine of the Bible so I remained sceptical and then I woke up and broke the agreement anyway, just in case.

Then another interesting dream that I got which perfectly illustrates how wicked those demons are, was this. That I was in a room with a friend, and a witch-like lady showed to us how she could walk out of the window, walk on air and disappear (we were on the second floor, if I remember right). I again was sceptical in the dream and refused to try this out when she offered it. But my friend thought this to be very cool, so she walked out of the window, fell, and killed herself.

So this just shows that all the temptations of demons are eventually going to destroy you, no matter how amazing they look or sound.

I’m very happy that I’m becoming smarter in dreams than I used to, since now I know how demons deceive people in dreams and steal their spiritual blessings. When I was into new age I was totally passive in my dreams. I remember getting dreams of me being killed numerous times in a dream, and I did nothing to prevent it. But after I got saved, demons no longer attempt to directly shoot at me or kill me in any other way, but try to tempt me into agreeing with them.

And the more I get stronger spiritually by reading the word of God and praying at night when demons are most active, the wiser decisions I make in dreams as well, and I am able to also rebuke demons in dreams sometimes. For example, the last dream I got was really amazing – I actually threw a demon into a large fast-flowing river and it took him away down the waterfall whilst he was screaming! So there’s a definite progress that I see, from being passive, then being on the defense, and now transitioning to being on the offence!

Boil on the hand

I forgot to mention in the video the two other things happened to me that were connected to the fast. First, I developed a burn-like wound on my left hand, around 1 cm in length. I cleaned it and there was water (probably poison) inside that raised white skin – it really looked like a boil, and it was painful. And when I cleaned the wound, it started healing, but I still see that mark on my hand but it’s much better. Chris Lasala told in one of his old videos that he was full of such boils after being saved but they all healed, and that these are the poisons that come out from the body that were deposited by demonic bug bites and similar things.

Discovering a soul tie

Another thing that happened I believe a day after my fast was that I managed to find a spiritual tie I had no idea I had. This was again due to watching old videos of Chris Lasala about soul ties (I don’t remember how the video was called). In the video he told that soul ties can develop with people without even having sexual relationships with them, and I did not know it (with the exception of being tied by blood to the family, of course).

So I decided to go through a list of my past friends and boyfriends that I had no physical relationship with to see if anything would happen. And when I said aloud that I was breaking the soul tie with my first love, I felt like there was a sense of betrayal from that guy, that he did not expect me to break it, and then there was lots of grief in my heart and I actually started crying, like mourning for a dead person! So all this time I had the soul tie with my first love, without even knowing about it!

He was my classmate and we as though knew we were meant for each other the first day we met when we started school! I was seven or eight when I started school. He actually would hold my hand at school, it was adorable:) and I really believed we would get married, but his parents moved to another place so he could no longer attend the school. That broke my heart and I remembered him for many years after.

And a few years ago (around a year before me being saved) he sent me a facebook request and we talked online. That time I was with my ex in South India. Soon after this re-connection he got married and I was happy for him because that woman looked like a really nice person.

And all this time I had a soul tie with him. I’m so glad it’s broken now because he’s married, so it’s not a good soul tie. But how true it is that nobody can really know the heart! (Jeremiah 17:9)

So after crying for quite some time, I felt fine after. This experience also proved to me how powerful our words are, and when you have the Holy Spirit, they cut like a sword, and you literally cut a soul tie with your word in the name of Jesus. You can also feel the power of the Holy Ghost if you rebuke demons when you’re half-asleep at night, because you feel that word going through every cell of your body – it’s that powerful.

Finally…

So this is all I wanted to share with you. I will continue fasting one day a week (and on Wednesdays I will attempt to fast too but will be light on myself for the time being), and do a bigger fast every few weeks.

I believe all Christians who want to be effective in spiritual warfare must fast. What’s more, fasting provides not only spiritual but physical benefits as well, as toxins leave your body.

If you have fasted and would like to share your experience, I would like to hear from you – please leave a comment below.

http://www.simonarich.com/commercial-body-care-alternatives/#commentsWed, 30 Aug 2017 03:52:31 +0000http://www.simonarich.com/?p=1797
In this post I’m not going to go into the reasons why you should avoid all (and I mean all) the commercial body care products because there’s already a lot of information about it online, like how aborted fetus cells are put into facial creams and lipsticks, and that some perfumes are based on witchcraft spells and that all the chemical ingredients in commercial body care products are toxic to your body, so your body absorbs poison when you put that stuff on your skin.

Demons feed on that which is unclean, be it your life of sin or the unclean things that put into your body. So Christians should make sure that they avoid not only sin, but also toxic body care products as well as unhealthy foods (and I’m not perfect in the last point but I’m transitioning to a completely healthy diet at this moment).

In this article I will focus on giving advice on how to replace all your body and hair care items with natural ingredients, and this advice is based on my own experience of around ten years plus.

I’ve been using only natural body care products for that long (and was experimenting with it since around the age of nineteen), with the exception of eye makeup which I also stopped using a few years before getting saved, and then after I got saved I wore mineral makeup a few times, but thankfully I stopped using it after those few times because my skin started looking bad even after wearing it for such a short period of time.

And I also stopped wearing herbal kajal which is natural but I can no longer use it, because I got convicted by the Holy Spirit when I resumed wearing it after being saved, and also because of the fact that it was used in India and Egypt for seducing men and actually subduing them if particular combination of ingredients was mixed together to make that eye-tint. So beware, men, of women using kajal on their eyes!

Men, beware! Some herbal kajal types are based on witchcraft recipes to subdue men.

.

So in this article I will discuss how to care for your facial skin, body, hair, and I will give some advice about eye and tooth care as well.

Facial care – cleansing and exfoliation

You can remove dirt from your skin with any kind of edible oil, and then make a mixture of water and something like Fuller’s earth clay and apply it on your skin with circular movements and then wash it off with water in order to remove the oil, and you have just cleansed your skin in a natural way.

Oil also removes makeup much faster than any commercial makeup removers and it will save you a lot of money (I’m telling this in case you still wear makeup, but I hope you’re transitioning to the natural God-given look). So to remove makeup with oil you simply apply some oil to your face with your fingers or cotton, then wait for some time, depending on what kind of makeup you want to remove (it takes longer to remove mascara), and then take some cotton and wipe it off, and apply Fuller’s earth and water mixture to your face in circular movements and wash it off with water.

But if you don’t use makeup, then you can simply wash the dust off your facial skin with warm water only and then dry it with a cotton towel that’s a little rough so that you naturally stimulate and exfoliate your skin. And when you feel the need for deeper cleansing, then you can apply some clay powder to do so, such as the mentioned Fuller’s earth or French Green Clay (I don’t remember if I used French Green Clay in the past or just intended to. I’ve been using Fuller’s earth for a long time, and that’s why I recommend it). I don’t usually keep the clay powder mix as a mask but only massage it into the skin and wash it off quite quickly, so it serves as a mild exfoliator.

You can also exfoliate your skin with a natural mixture of spices, such as ground cinnamon, sandalwood, red sandalwood and turmeric, but if you use turmeric, don’t keep it long on skin unless you want to look yellow. So turmeric is really good for skin as it’s anti-bacterial and it has healing properties, but once you apply it, you should remove it fast, or just use it in small quantities in mixtures, and not alone because then definitely you will end up yellow.

And if you do end up with a yellow tint, don’t worry, you just need to apply oil on your face and wait for some time, and remove it with a cotton pad, and go through the routine of how to cleanse skin that I’ve already mentioned, which is by using clay powder mix.

And since I’ve mentioned turmeric, I must also add that it’s perfect for healing of small wounds, so if you have some cut or anything like this, simply clean the cut or wound and apply a pinch of turmeric powder on it if it’s not deep, and then bandage that area and let it heal.

Turmeric has excellent healing qualities and can be used for skin and even taken internally for anti-bacterial action.

.

This kind of care for skin will get your skin into natural balance. On the other hand, chemical ingredients get the skin out of balance and that’s why people get oily skin all the time or the skin looks bad. But if you don’t disturb your skin with these toxic substances but only use such natural ways to care for it, you will notice that after a few months it will look much better.

(And that reminds me that if you have dark circles under your eyes, it might be hereditary, but it can also be due to the overworking of your adrenal glands because of the caffeine abuse, so if you suffer from this, avoid tea and coffee.)

Also, all the commercial lotions and similar products damage skin and make it age faster because of the heavy load of toxic ingredients in those products. The skin gets tired of fighting all these unnatural substances all the time, and so it ages. So if you stick to natural ingredients, your skin will heal and it will look youthful for a longer time.

And since I’ve touched on the topic of youth, you also prolong youth if you don’t abuse your body in any way, which means overeating, drinking, smoking, not drinking enough water (with the exception of dry fasting), breathing highly polluted air, as well as having frequent sexual intercourse, and that’s something you don’t hear often, but it’s true.

Because sexual intercourse was designed to create a baby, and I’m not saying you cannot enjoy your husband or wife this way for the sake of closeness, but I advise you not to abuse this procreative function because you do it at the expense of your youth, intelligence, awareness and general well-being. When you abstain from sexual relationships your health becomes really good, your immune system works perfectly, and you just look younger for longer than usual.

Those who abuse this function usually lose their good eyesight very quickly, they lose that shine in the eyes, they lose a general radiant look, and they usually succumb to any common virus that people around them catch, like influenza, for example. These are sure signs that that function is abused, as well as when people get annoyed quickly for small things, they get cold very fast when exposed to cooler environments, it takes a long time for them to start functioning, so to speak, after they wake up, and they don’t recover from diseases quickly.

So I got a little bit off-topic here, but I thought it’s important to let you know this.

Facial care – moisturizing

Although for around ten years I was using oil as a skin moisturizer, and you can see that in my older videos as my skin looked a little shiny, I eventually stopped using it. I used to use extra virgin coconut oil and sometimes jojoba oil as it most resembles natural human body oil so it’s easy for the skin to absorb it. I also had success in using extra virgin almond oil.

The good thing about using oil is that you prevent new wrinkles from forming and it acts as a natural sunscreen, but I also use an umbrella since I usually stay in really hot countries and natural sunscreen is just not enough. But the disadvantage of using oil is that the skin tends to look shiny, and you may develop pimples on your skin, especially if you use lesser quality oil. I used to really like applying oil on my skin very often to keep it moisturized in a hot climate but I quite often suffered from this negative consequence of developing pimples on my skin.

So eventually I transitioned to what I believe is the best face moisturizer there is. And that’s aloe vera. It’s perfect, because firstly, once you buy the plant, you will have this moisturizer for many years, so you save a lot of money. Secondly, you have it totally fresh, so you get all the goodness of aloe vera absorbed into your skin ever day. Thirdly, it’s a good natural protection against the sun. Also, it’s not oily so your skin doesn’t look shiny and so you don’t get pimples; yet it does the job of moisturizing your skin. And finally, it gives you a fresh look as it soothes the skin. So this is my personal favorite, and I highly recommend it both for men and women.

To use it, simply cut off one leaf of the plant and when you need to moisturize your skin, cut it sideways in half if the leaf is small (as much as you need), then take both inner parts of the leaf and apply it on your skin. Then you can use your fingers to massage the gel in, if you applied quite a lot and it doesn’t get absorbed straight away.

If you buy the aloe vera plant that’s big, then just cut the leaf close to the root, and then cut a slice of it with a knife, cut out the gel part of the leaf and then smooth this gel all over your face. You can keep the cut leaf for a very long time, maybe for two weeks or so.

Natural Body care

Instead of using shower gels you can use Fuller’s earth to wash yourself with; another good option is mung bean powder mixed with water that’s widely used in India and I used to use it as well whilst I was there. I like it but it leaves a mess in your bathroom and it can clog your shower drain if you use a lot of it, so be careful.

If you want extra exfoliation you can rub natural sugar into your body once it gets wet and then wash it off, and you can also use different spice mixtures to exfoliate your body with, having ingredients such as the coconut oil for its base and then adding natural sugar, a little bit of ginger for better blood circulation, and then adding ground cinnamon, a pinch of turmeric, maybe some nutmeg and some essential oil. You can easily make your own scrub at home, and there are many recipes online of such scrubs.

In India people use coconut husks to scrub their bodies with and they’re really effective, or you can use loofah sponge to do so, or a shower brush with natural bristles, or simply use a rough cotton towel after you finish bathing to dry yourself with, and this again is very beneficial to you skin as it increases blood circulation.

Hair Care – combing

A wood comb is much better than any other comb, especially if you get the one made of a neem tree which is really beneficial for hair. Or you can use a wood brush too but a comb really does the job once you get used to it.

The reason why the wood comb is more beneficial than a usual comb is because it doesn’t irritate your scalp because it’s natural, and it distributes your natural hair oil equally, right to the hair ends, so the oil stays not only in your scalp but gets to the ends of your hair as well, making hair healthier.

If you buy such a comb, make sure that the ends of it are not sharp but smooth so that they don’t damage your scalp.

Neem tree wood comb is most beneficial for your hair and scalp.

.

Hair care – washing

There are many natural options for washing your hair. I really like using hibiscus flower and leaves when I’m in South India because that plant is everywhere there and the advantage of the hibiscus hair wash is that it not only cleanses your hair but also moisturizes it.

I use this kind of hibiscus plant (there are many varieties of it) to wash my hair with when I’m in South India.

.

When you crush hibiscus flower and leaves with a stone (the traditional way) or rub it between your hands until it becomes foamy, (or blend it with some water in a blender), and then you put some water and make it into a mixture, then you should work it into your hair and scalp thoroughly. If you want a more lathery feel, you should use more hibiscus flowers than leaves in the mixture.

You can leave this mixture on your hair for around 30 minutes if you want your hair to be more shiny and for it to receive more nourishment from the plant.

I know people also use hibiscus flower powder and I think I tried it also. But if you buy this powder, make sure it’s not mixed with henna powder because it will change the color of your hair into more reddish or brown, because it’s a natural coloring agent. Indian brides have henna tattoos on their hands which last for a week or more. Some men and women in India also use henna to make their hair look more brown or reddish.

Another good alternative to shampoo is Fuller’s earth or similar clay powders, especially for hair which is oily. Do not leave this mixture of clay and water long on your hair as it may dry it too much, and do not apply it on your hair ends because of this reason. So make the mixture, thoroughly apply it on your scalp, and then wash it off.

If you wash your hair very often, you can use only water to wash the dirt off it and then use once in one or two weeks something like clay or some spice mixture for deeper cleansing. For example, because I stay in hot countries, I wash my hair almost every day. So because I wash my hair often I do not not deep cleansing all the time.

Beware that if you always use harsh substances on your hair, you destroy natural oil balance in your hair and it might get oily a day or two after washing, and that’s a sign that that balance is lost because of all the chemical substances that you use on your hair.

I must warn you that when you transition from using commercial hair and body care to using natural ingredients, both hair and body will have to go through a transition process, because they will naturally start detoxifying as a result of years of abuse. So firstly it’s likely that your hair and body will look even worse than before. But you need to go through this process until the detoxification is done, and then both your hair and body will get back to their natural balance and very minimal care will be needed to keep them looking good.

Personally, it took me around six months to really transition, but I do not regret doing that at all, because now I only need to wake up, wash may face with water, dry it with a towel, apply some aloe vera, and I’m ready to go. It saves a lot of time and money, it increases my self-confidence, and it’s just nice to know that I don’t abuse my hair and body in any way.

If you want something similar to soap which thoroughly removes dirt from your hair, a good option is soap nuts, which are big berries of a soap nut plant which are dried and they come in a powder form or you can soak them for some time and then crush them and sieve the liquid for you to use on your hair:

Soap nut berries can be used instead of normal soap and they can even be used to wash your clothes with or for cleaning anything else.

Soap nut berries are usually used for washing clothes, but you can surely wash your skin and hair with it as it’s completely natural, but just don’t keep it long on your skin because it removes dirt quickly and we want our skin and hair to be kept in its natural (undisturbed) state as much as possible.

Let me expand on this point as it’s important.

It’s a mistake to disturb your skin and hair all the time with all kinds of lotions and potions because this keeps hair and body in a state of imbalance; therefore, if you want to have healthy skin and hair you should disturb them as little as possible.

So minimal skin and hair care with natural ingredients does just that. You help the skin to cleanse itself, and after that you help the skin to make up for the loss of natural oils (due to cleansing) by applying some natural moisturizer, and then you leave the skin alone.

It’s like how you would treat a wound. You would not keep cleaning and applying new medicine on it all the time as it would not allow the healing process to take place, but you would cleanse the wound once, apply the medicine, put a bandage over it, and let it do its natural healing.

The same applies to beauty care. We do not want to interfere with the natural processes of skin, we just help to cleanse it and moisturize it, and that’s it. And you will find that if you do not bother skin by frequent deep cleansings and so forth, it will look much healthier.

It goes without saying that drinking lots of water and eating good food also improves the way that your skin and hair look.

Try washing your hair only with warm or cool water, but avoid hot water as it’s too harsh for your scalp and even though you may no longer use chemical ingredients that strip off your natural hair oil, hot water would do it. So stick to warm or cold water only, and the best way to wash your hair is to firstly wash it with warm water and then finish off with cold, because this makes the hair shine as cold water closes hair cuticles and so it even may prevent split ends.

Water-only hair washing

So as you can see, the less you touch your hair and disturb its natural processes, the more you’re helping it to look good. If you don’t believe me, just google about washing hair with water only, for example, and you will see pictures of how beautiful hair looks when it’s not assaulted by all sorts of chemical ingredients.

For example, this lady whose picture I’ve found online, uses only water to wash her hair with:

This lady also uses no shampoo to wash her hair with:

This is how it looks like when a woman used no shampoo for eighteen months:

So I’m not joking about it. Leaving your hair alone will make it heal and it will be as beautiful as it can possibly be. This is the kind of washing that I normally do, and whet it needs deeper cleansing, I use Fuller’s earth, or if I’m in South India, then I use hibiscus flowers and leaves.

If you want to see how my natural hair looks like, you can watch my older videos where I don’t wear head covering. I started using bleach on my hair since I was around sixteen till around the age of 21, and I wish I wouldn’t have done this because I damaged my hair greatly, as it used to be really thick and shiny. But since the start of treating my hair well it has recovered quite a lot and now I’m happy with the way that it looks.

So do not let the media deceive you. You can achieve the same glamorous look without all those expensive chemical shampoos and sprays. You will save a lot of money, and your hair will be much healthier if you just stick to natural products or wash your hair with water only most of the time. And it goes without saying that you will also end up saving a lot of money.

Hair drying

Let your hair dry naturally or if you must use a hair-drier, do not dry it with hot air or cold air, but only warm. Also, when you finish washing your hair, dry it with a towel by rubbing it with a towel from scalp towards the hair ends for a few times to distribute natural hair oil more equally from the scalp to the ends.

Hair care – moisturizing

I personally use coconut oil to moisturize my hair with. Around a year ago I transitioned to using usual Indian coconut oil with other ingredients (just normal hair oil that Indian women use with a jasmine scent) but I found that it made my hair drier, so I transitioned back to using only coconut oil on my hair.

Since my hair is only dry at its ends, I only apply that oil to hair ends, and I don’t apply anything on the rest of my hair because I do not use any harsh ingredients to wash my hair with, so I do not strip away its natural oils so it is naturally moisturized. But because I live in sunny places, my hair ends tend to get dry because of the frequent exposure to the sun and because of the fact that it’s quite long, so that’s why I need to use oil on hair ends.

But if your hair is dry, you should even massage the oil into the scalp, and in India many people firstly massage the oil into the scalp and hair, and then wash their hair with some natural or unnatural substances, and then dry it, and apply no moisturizer after washing.

Many people in India have very good hair, so this really works for them. I personally like to apply hair oil after I wash my hair and when it has dried a little bit. So you can experiment with it. For example, my ex who had very thick and shiny hair, would usually use coconut oil for his hair, and nothing more. He would apply coconut oil on his hair and scalp, and then wash it with water. On rare occasions after applying hair oil, he would wash his hair with normal soap that people use for washing hands, but that wasn’t often.

My friend from Spain always used good quality olive oil to moisturize her hair with, and her hair looked amazing. So I recommend olive oil as a hair moisturizer as well. But I stick to coconut oil because I stay in countries where it’s abundant, so its price is good and you can get really good quality coconut oil here.

Hairspray alternative

Firstly, it’s better not to use hairspray at all because it’s vanity, and you will also find that when you don’t use harsh chemicals on your hair it will naturally become easy to control. But the last hairspray that I used, I guess it was around ten years ago I believe, and it was Aubrey Organics gum arabic hairspray which was really strong and I believe contained only natural ingredients, and it smelled nice also.

Eye care

If you need to use eyedrops, it’s better to just apply distilled or very pure water to your eyes, or very light cooled and filtered camomile tea which soothes the eyes. In India people use coconut oil for that and it works because it has antibacterial properties and moisturizes eyes, but if you do that, make sure it’s fresh virgin coconut oil, and it may sting for a little after you apply it. Oil drops soothe tired eyes and it’s also good to put a few drops of oil into your nose and ears if you live in a dry or dusty environment.

Natural tooth care

Throw away the toothpaste because it contains harmful ingredients. Glycerin which is responsible for the texture of the toothpaste leaves a film on your teeth for a very long time which is toxic because it’s petroleum-based. Toothpaste has almost nothing natural about it so it’s almost fully toxic, and you can read articles online about what each ingredient in your toothpaste does to your health.

There are many other things you can use instead of this poisonous beast-system invention. If you need teeth whitening, you can brush your teeth with bicarb soda but only sometimes, because it’s quite a harsh ingredient. The best thing to do is to brush your teeth with charcoal powder, this is the best one I have found. I really love it. Other options are different spice mixtures, but I personally found charcoal to be the best tooth cleanser there is.

Activated charcoal tablets can be used for detoxification and charcoal powder is a perfect toothpaste replacement.

.

And, by the way, once in a while taking charcoal tablets helps remove heavy toxins from your body, so you should keep this amazing natural substance in your home all the time. It also can be used as a water filter, it cleanses the digestive tract, and it’s the safest medicine for poisoning or drug overdose.

Just make sure you get the activated charcoal made of coconut shells or other natural sources if you want to use them as medicine; and do not overuse them internally, as it has a powerful detoxifying effect on your body – it should only be used occasionally.

Clove is beneficial for teeth and gum health so you may want to chew one or two after a meal, and it will also quicken the digestive process since more saliva is produced which helps in digesting food. Clove oil is good for teeth and gum problems; but make sure to get the one that’s fully natural, and apply it in small quantities as it’s very strong.

In India when people wake up, they remove the toxins that have accumulated on their tongues during the night with a tongue cleaner that looks like this:

They use either a copper or stainless steel one to clean their tongues with. I do it too, for twenty strokes as soon as I brush my teeth in the morning.

To scrape your tongue, just extend your tongue fully (and not how it’s shown in the pictures below) and then scrape it from as high as you can reach, right to the end of the tongue for around twenty times.

Here are two pictures that will help you to understand how to do it:

By the way, if your tongue is heavily coated in the morning with a white or yellow substance, that’s a sign that you have a lot of toxins in your body so you should do something about it, such as fasting, drinking more water, exercising, eating healthy food and doing other things to help to get those toxins out of your body; because as I’ve mentioned in the beginning of this post, demons love to stay in toxic environments.

I find tongue cleaning to be very beneficial, because I do not want to internalize those toxins that the tongue expelled at night back into my body. So it became a normal routine for me, just as I would wash my face, brush my teeth or clean my ears.

Another thing you might choose to do for the detoxification of your mouth and whitening of your teeth and assuring the health of your teeth and gums is to do oil pulling. I used to do it, but not anymore, though if I would have again some teeth or gum problems, that would probably be the first thing that I would do.

Oil pulling can even help to prevent cavities according to those who use this method regularly. So to do oil pulling, you need to use good quality oil such as sesame seed or coconut oil, and take a good amount of it into your mouth but don’t swallow any of it, but just swish it around your mouth for twenty minutes, then spit it out, rinse your mouth well with warm water, and brush your teeth.

You should do this as soon as you wake up and continue until the condition of your teeth and gums improves, or you can make this into a regular morning routine if you so desire.

Natural deodorant

I personally use a crystal deodorant. Some crystal deodorants contain aluminum so you must check if the label says that it’s free from alcohol, chemicals and aluminum. Crystal deodorants are simply pieces of natural mineral salt rock, that’s all they are.

They may contain some other ingredients too, like some essential oils for a better scent, or turmeric for extra-anti-bacterial action, though the salt rock already has the antibacterial quality. These are really great alternatives to commercial deodorants which not only block sweat glands, but also can cause disease as a result of this violent action against the body.

Crystal deodorants, on the other hand, neutralize the bad smell of sweat instead of blocking sweat glands, so it allows the sweat glands to expel the sweat (so your body gets rid of toxins), but there’s no smell. So it doesn’t interfere with natural body processes, and that’s why it’s safe to use.

Please handle this deodorant with care because if you drop it, it may break in pieces or break in half, and then the sharp edges might damage your skin if you try to use the broken product.

If you apply it properly, it will prevent the smell of sweat for sure, even for men. And the way to apply it properly is to firstly wet the crystal rock with water, then keep applying it to your dried armpits in circular motions even going beyond the area of the armpit, and do this for some time. And then allow the moisture to dry on your skin, and only then put on the upper garment.

I’ve been using crystal rock for many years, and I don’t think I will change this because it does its job, and also it lasts for a very long time, for a year or more, depending on its size. So again, you end up saving a lot of money.

I also used coconut oil base with different essential oils as a natural deodorant and it worked okay, but a crystal deodorant works much better. Many people do not use it properly and that’s why it doesn’t work for them.

By the way, the salt rock is applied in Nepal, for example, in barber shops after shaving, so that men don’t get any infection. So this can be a natural alternative to an after-shave lotion for men, though ideally men should not shave clean at all because it’s not manly according to the Bible; and it’s beautiful when men have beards, at least in my opinion!

Finally…

Please avoid buying elaborate natural mixtures or mixtures having things like rose petals in them because many of such mixtures are rooted in witchcraft. I advise you to stick to basic ingredients or if you mix some ingredients, do it at home; if you got some recipe, make sure that it has nothing to do with witchcraft by googling its ingredients.

Finally, please do not fall for the lie that you need numerous lotions and potions to keep yourself looking good. You can actually use very few ingredients for taking care of your body, like some oil and a few other things. To be perfectly honest, even if you would just have only good quality coconut oil, you would be fine, because some people even brush teeth with coconut oil and it does the job, and I’m not joking!

There are so many other natural things that you can use to make sure that your hair and skin looks good, like applying natural curd on your face for around 30 minutes for your face to look fresh and to cool the skin, or using a raw egg as natural facial mask, or using coconut powder as a scrub for dry skin… there are just so many things you could use.

So this article serves only as an introduction to this wide topic, and I’ve shared with you only the ingredients that I myself use with the exception of few. But there are many different hair and skin types, so you should experiment and research these topics and find your own perfect skin and hair cleansers and moisturizers, and just stick to them, so that the body care is taken care of and you can focus on more important things.

But because I see many people in this trap of using chemicals which destroy their natural beauty, I just needed to write this article because I consider it wicked for those companies to sell you poison so that they deprive you of your beauty and this again makes you turn again to those companies in search of things that would fix the damage they’ve already done, which would cost even more, and would still poison your skin.

So I hope that this post inspired you to stay away from all the poisonous chemical substances and to start experimenting with natural ingredients until you find what really suits your skin and hair, and stick with that.

I do not think that Christians should obsess with the way that they look as many more important things need to be done, but it does make you feel at ease and more confident when you take care of this aspect of your life.

This prayer should be repeated as many times a day as possible whilst you are fasting. You should ideally do at least three day’s fast with one or two day’s fast being a dry fast (without any water), and then on the fourth day and several other days drink juice only.

That’s because one day’s fast is usually not enough to remove demonic strongholds, and at least three days are required for that cleansing process to take place.

During these days you should pray to God and read this prayer, and also the money that you would have spent on food, you should donate it to those who are poor, or buy them a meal, as well as some cover if you see a person who is inadequately clothed, and if it’s within your means, you should in the days of fasting pay for someone’s rent or even invite a poor person to stay with you.

How to properly fast in a biblical way

This advice doesn’t come from my own mind but from the Word of God. Read the whole chapter of Isaiah 58 to understand what God considers a fast to be. A fast should not only be about you not eating, but also about being kind to others, and in those days you should give food, shelter and clothes to those who are poor. I found that if you donate money to meet those requirements you will get a blessing from God also.

God says that when you do these things, God will indeed answer your prayers, whether you want to be delivered from demonic strongholds, make cancer disappear or if you pray for any other blessing in your life. God promises that He will answer when you fast in such a way, so this is a spiritual law.

So to summarize, if you want your fast to be effective, you must:

On those days be kind to others.

Give food, shelter and clothing to the poor (I found the money equivalent to be okay too).

Then call on the name of the Lord with your request and He promises to answer you.

The blessings that God promises for your proper fasting

Even without any request of your own, God promises the following blessings to you by default if you only adhere to this law of fasting. And these blessings are:

Your light will break forth as the morning.

Your health will grow speedily.

The Lord will hear your prayers.

Your light will rise in darkness, and your darkness will be as a noon-day.

God will guide you continually!

He will satisfy your soul in tough times!

He will provide for you (make your bones fat).

You will be like a watered garden whose waters do not fail.

(Isaiah 58:8-11)

And the blessings don’t end here! God also promises some blessings that might be a little hard to decipher. Those mysterious words are found in Isaiah 58:12 (right after the mentioned blessings) and I believe they can be translated this way:

And they that come from you will (re)build the everlasting desolations, and you will establish the foundations of many generations, and you will be called the restorer of the wall crack, the footpath to dwell in.

So as you see, your proper fasting gives you blessings that will even be transferred to your future generations and you will be the one who establishes this pattern for your future generations to follow!

Warfare prayer (based on Bible) to destroy demonic strongholds

Once this is out of the way, here is the warfare prayer based entirely on Scripture. Its purpose is to remind God of His promises because He Himself tells us to remind Him of them in Isaiah 43:26. So the purpose of this prayer is to remind God of His particular promises of delivering us from the enemy, and to affirm that we are in agreement with those promises.

When you come into the agreement with God, then God can work in your life to bless it. If you don’t have this agreement, He cannot do that. So in this prayer we will not only remind God of His promises of deliverance from the enemy, but also the fact that we are in complete agreement with it, so that nothing hinders us from God fighting for us and delivering us from those demons.

Also, you must make sure that you don’t have any contrary agreements that demons made with you which would surely block the blessing of God, and this is already explained in this article. So if you have not already broken those agreements, you must do so before saying this prayer. Also, you must read this article because it tells of what will happen after you break demonic contracts and how to avoid being deceived by those demons so that you don’t get into agreement with them again.

So here is the prayer, and I advise you to print it out if you can. You can now pray with me by agreeing in your mind with what you will hear (if you play the above video), to see the power of the word of God in your life, as you will probably feel demons trembling in you or have any other sensation in your body, and maybe some demons even will leave now through you yawning or coughing.

And when you say this prayer yourself as often as you can during fasting, you must experience the demonic strongholds melting away and demons leaving you.

So here is the warfare prayer:

Dear Heavenly Father, in the name of Jesus I approach your Heavenly Throne with a request to deliver me from demonic strongholds. I agree with your Word which says that I should not be afraid of my enemy because You Yourself will fight for me. (Deuteronomy 3:22)

You promise that I will chase a thousand, because it is You who fights for me (Joshua 23:10); and nobody can bring charge against Your elect, because it is You who justifies. (Romans 8:33)

It is told in Your word, Holy Father, that through You we will push back our adversaries and that through Your name we will trample down those who rise up against us. I will not trust in my bow, neither shall my sword save me. But You will save me from my adversaries, and will shame those who hate me. (Psalm 44:5-7)

I believe in Your word which says that if I resist the devil, he will free from me. (James 4:7)

I believe that because I belong to You, my Heavenly Father, I have already overcome my enemies, because greater is the Holy Spirit that is in me than he who is in the world. (1 John 4:4)

I understand that though I walk in the flesh, I do not wage war according to the flesh; I know that the weapons of my warfare are not physical but are mighty in You for tearing down strongholds, throwing down imaginations and every high thing that is exalted against the knowledge of You. (2 Corinthians 10:3-5)

I believe in Your word which says that I will withstand the devil by being steadfast in my faith. (1 Peter 5:9)

I believe that no weapon that is formed against me will prosper and that I will condemn every tongue that rises up against me in judgement. I know that this is my heritage because I am Your servant and because it’s Your righteousness to have things this way. (Isaiah 54:17)

I am putting on Your whole armour to be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. I know that my wrestling is not physical but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world’s rulers of this darkness, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places. (Ephesians 6:12)

Therefore I put on Your whole armour, having the belt of truth around my hips, having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and having fitted my feet with the preparation of the Good News of Peace; above all, taking up the shield of faith, with which I will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the evil one. And I take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit which is the spoken word of God, with all prayer and requests, praying at all times in the Spirit. (Ephesians 6:13-18)

I remind you, my Father, that You have given me victory through Your Son Jesus Christ (1 Corinthians 15:57) and that Your Son has given us power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy; and that nothing by any means will hurt me. (Luke 10:19)

I know that You are watchful, and You strengthen me, and keep me from evil. (2 Thessalonians 3:3)

I know that the thief comes only to steal, kill and destroy, but Your Son came so that we would have life, and have it abundantly. (John 10:10)

Jesus gave us power over our enemies, because whatever we bind on earth is bound in heaven (Matthew 18:18), and You promised that whoever rises up against us will be defeated before us. They will come against us one way and flee from us seven ways. (Deuteronomy 28:7)

Your Son Jesus has overcome the world (John 16:33), so I should not worry about enemies winning over me. He promised to build His church on the foundation of Him being Your Son, and He told that the gates of Sheol will not prevail against this foundational stone (Matthew 16:18).

Your Son was revealed to destroy the works of the devil (1 John 3:8) and You promise that those who put their trust in You will renew their strength, mount up with wings like eagles; they will run, and not be weary; they will walk, and not faint. (Isaiah 40:31)

I agree that if You are for us, nobody can be against us, because You did not spare Your own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, therefore surely You will freely give us all the other lesser things. (Romans 8:31-32)

Nobody can condemn me, because Christ who died and was raised up from the dead is now at the right hand of You and is making intercession for me (Romans 8:34). I am strong and of good courage. I am not afraid, neither dismayed; because You, my Father, are with me wherever I go (Joshua 1:9).

Dear Father, You promise in Your word that I will strike my enemies through, so that they will not be able to rise. They shall fall under my feet, because You have given me strength to battle. You have subdued under me those who rise up against me. (Psalm 18: 38-39)

You have given me the necks of my enemies so that I might destroy those who hate me. They cried, but there was none to save; they even cried to You, but You did not answer them. Then I beat them small as the dust before the wind. I emptied them out like the dirt into the streets. (Psalm 18:40-42)

Dear Father, you promise that those who dwell in Your secret place will rest in your shadow. I call You “my refuge and my fortress; my God, in whom I trust.” I know that You will deliver me from the snare of the fowler, and from the deadly pestilence. (Psalm 91:1-3)

I believe that You will cover me with Your feathers. Under Your wings I will take refuge. Your faithfulness is a shield and a wall. I will not be afraid of the terror by night, nor of the arrow that flies by day, nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness, nor of the destruction that wastes at noonday. (Psalm 91:4-6)

A thousand may fall at my side, and ten thousand at my right hand; but it will not come near me. I will only look with my eyes, and see the recompense of the wicked. Because I have made You my refuge, and my dwelling place, no evil will overtake me, no plague will come near my dwelling. (Psalm 91:7-10)

You will put Your angels in charge of me, to guard me in all my ways. In their hands they will lift me up, so that I will not strike my foot against a stone. (Psalm 91:11-12)

I will tread upon the lion and the viper. I will trample the young lion and the serpent underfoot. Because I have set my love upon You, and therefore You will deliver me. You will set me on high, because I have known Your name. I will call on You, and You will answer me. You will be with me in trouble. You will deliver me and will satisfy me with long life and show me Your salvation, because I have set my love upon You. (Psalm 91: 13-16)

I’m not afraid of any number of enemies, because I know that the battle is not mine, but Yours, my Father (2 Chronicles 20:15). You will deliver me from every evil work, and will preserve me for Your heavenly kingdom. (2 Timothy 4:18)

I will withstand the devil through my faith, and You, the God of all Grace, who called me to Your eternal kingdom in Christ, after I have suffered a little while, will Yourself restore, confirm, and strengthen and establish me. (1 Peter 5:10)

You will save the afflicted, but the haughty ones you will bring down, and you will light my candle, and enlighten my darkness. (Psalm 18:27-28)

Father, I am in complete agreement with your promises, and therefore I request You to fight this battle for me, and to remove all the demonic strongholds in my body and life.

Since the day that I went out of my way to help the beggars ( I write about it here), some kind of breakthrough happened in my life and God started revealing not only my spiritual state but much deeper things about the spiritual realm and how demons operate in people’s lives and dreams.

I think many people do not come across the knowledge that I shared in my lastfew articles as well as this post is because they think that the Old Testament no longer applies to them, so they fail to apply in their lives the law of God which are spiritual principles and therefore if you follow them, you will be blessed by God, He will protect you and will give you the knowledge that you seek.

And therefore I believe that the reason I’m learning about the deep operation of demons is because now God is blessing me with the knowledge that I wanted to receive because I follow His laws.

What I’m going to share with you in this article can totally turn your life around if you only apply what you’re going to read here. It can break any negative habit, get you out of debt or free you from life of failures whether it’s to do with your marriage, failure at work or any other problem.

I’ve come across one person on YouTube who did his homework and figured out what makes demons enter people and make covenants with them without even humans being aware of this fact. And those covenants are honored by our God, and therefore if those covenants involve restrictions on you, such as you remaining poor for the rest of your life, God cannot interfere.

If you’re my regular reader, you probably know that I was doubting if demons indeed require legal rights to be cast out, because it’s not in the Bible. Well actually it is, but that particular phrase “legal rights” is not used, but we find that God honors covenants, and demons use this fact to keep people in covenants with them and keep them ignorant of this fact, so that blessings of God do not reach them.

Furthermore, we read in the Bible that even if covenants are forged through lies, they still stand! Because it is told in the book of Joshua chapter nine that Gibeonites deceived Israelites into thinking that they came from very far and therefore Israelites made a peace treaty with them, without enquiring of the Lord. And that’s how Gibeonites, being their very neighbors, deceived Israelites and therefore Israelites could not break that peace treaty and exterminate them as it was requested by God. They had to honor this treaty although it was based on deception!

So we can see that covenants can even be forged through lies, and they will still be considered valid! And that’s how demons forge covenants with Christians, through very subtle deceptive methods, and once the covenant is made, the Christian starts experiencing problems in his life, be it health, financial, marital or any other types of problems.

Until that agreement is found and broken, the problems will continue not only in their lives, but in their children’s lives. That’s why families tend to experience the same misfortunes; like there could be always someone dying of cancer in your family or generation, or people dying in tragic ways, dying young, or women having terrible husbands and vice versa.

Demons make covenants with the unsuspecting Christians through dreams, and because most Christians are ignorant of how demons work and they don’t think that dreams mean anything, the covenant stands firm and even God himself cannot go against it, and thus the blessings of God get blocked.

But before explaining how demons forge covenants with people though dreams, I must first explain why they attempt to influence people in the first place, and how they enter your dream.

Why demons enter dreams

The reason why demons do not possess everyone and do away with them, is because they are not allowed to do so by God. In Genesis we read that it was the man that was given the dominion over this whole world, and not demons. Therefore those demons cannot influence people or the workings of this world directly. As a result, they make people to agree with them through deceptive means, and when the agreement is made, they have the legal right to operate through them to influence this earth.

The earth is ours, we are its rulers. Therefore even God operates by this law, and He does His will through His people. That’s why God talks through prophets to warn evil-doers and He used Israelites to exterminate those idol-worshippers who were beyond correction. Also our salvation came only because His only Son became a human being and died for us, so the Son of God needed to become a human to win over the evil that was in this world.

Now about how demons enter your dreams. Witches can astral-project into your dream when they have many evil spirits assigned to them due to their progress in their profession. Demons, on the other hand, enter dreams through firstly being conjured up through altars, and this is the most important thing to understand.

No altars equals no demons. Witches must use altars to conjure up demons. Therefore Christians who experience difficulties in life must pray against those altars, so that the problem is cut at its root. If they pray against those evil spirits, they will come back because the altar will still be there, and the agreement will still be there. But if the altar is destroyed, and also the covenant is destroyed, then those spirits have no legal right to enter your life.

When you destroy those altars and agreements, the demons will come into your dream to renew their agreement with you, and if they manage to deceive you into agreeing with them in your dream, that covenant will be renewed and demons will be in control of your life again. But if you resist them and do not agree with them in a dream, they will have no legal right to oppress you anymore!

But firstly let me tell you how altars work, and then how demons make agreements with people in their dreams.

We read in the Bible that when Israelites would erect an altar and make animal sacrifices to God, God would appear to them and bless them. This is the spiritual law – if you erect an altar to God and make a sacrifice, God will come to you with blessings. He will project a dream into your mind and your spirit will meet God, and will either accept or reject the blessing that God has for you.

That’s why Abram got a dream (in Genesis 15) when he made the required sacrifice for God to answer whether he would indeed have offspring. God talked to him in a dream, confirming that He would bless Abram with offspring. That dream was projected into Abram’s mind after the sacrifice, so it was the sacrifice on the altar that caused that dream and blessing.

Also, we read in 2 Chronicles 7 that God appeared to Solomon at night after he made huge animal sacrifice to God; so since God appeared to him at night with blessings, it’s likely that this happened when Solomon was sleeping and therefore it probably happened in a dream.

The same happened to me. It was only when I gave something to God by donating to the poor, that God revealed to me in a dream my spiritual state and what to do to break the bondage that I was under.

But it’s important to understand that the sacrifice that I made was not regular sacrifice. It’s one thing to give some money to beggars, and quite another to actually go back all the way to where they were, which takes time and effort, and it’s easier not to do this at all! (Read the story here.) So when the sacrifice is really a “sacrifice”, when you give something of yourself that you rather would not, then God indeed blesses you.

So this is a spiritual law – that if you sacrifice something dear to God, God will come to you with blessings.

Satan knows this to be a spiritual principle, therefore he uses it to his own advantage. He teaches people to set up pagan altars to conjure up spirits, and since evil spirit receives sacrifice and not the Spirit of God, the law is reversed, and instead of the conjured up spirit giving blessings, it comes with curses attached.

Therefore if any person in your past generations has erected an altar to evil spirits, that curse is still following you and your family to this day, because you belong to that bloodline. That curse might have been with you for thousands of years, staying in your bloodline, and it will only get broken when you break the covenant with those spirits and destroy the altar, and don’t renew it when spirits come to do so in dreams.

The altars that require blood sacrifice are most dangerous. They will function forever unless you destroy them and break the agreement. If the person who erected the altar dies and therefore nobody else sacrifices animals or even humans on that altar, the spirits that were conjured up will arrange their own blood sacrifices, such as gruesome deaths within the family or cancers, to feed themselves with blood. They have the right to do so because the agreement is there, and it’s renewed in dreams that people belonging to that bloodline receive.

To destroy the altar, you must come at it spiritually in the name of Jesus, and send fire from heaven to destroy that altar completely, and to annul all the agreements that evil spirits have made with you. You will know what agreements you are under by analyzing your dreams, by asking God to reveal this in your dreams, and by closely inspecting the misfortunes that happen in your life and compare them with the ones experienced by your family members or even past generations, and finding a common pattern.

When you find this pattern, come against that agreement in Jesus’ name, and break it, as well as the altar, spiritually.

When you do this, you will start receiving dreams of spirits pretending to be various objects or people, so that they deceive you into renewing the broken agreement with them. They might even come in the form of delicious food, and if you are seduced into eating it, you’ve just invited back that spirit called up from the altar back into your life!

They also masquerade as your deceased relatives and friends, your husband, wife, your current friends, family members or even strangers. If you see some deceased relative in your dream all the time, this is a generational spirit who managed to gain your trust in dreams, and therefore is free to abuse you by tormenting you and keeping generational curses on you in your waking life (since you are in agreement with it).

When you kiss, hug, or have sex with any people in your dreams you renew those agreements because you’re actually doing all these things with evil spirits that shape-shifted into the people that you know or don’t know.

So if you did any of these things in your dreams, you must burn those agreements in Jesus’ name, because now you have something more tangible to get hold of. You have been given a spiritual insight into the agreement in the form of food or anything else, so you can come directly at it in Jesus’ name, and break it after you wake up, in case in your dream you caused that agreement to be renewed.

And, as I said before, you should burn the altar that those spirits came from, and also cancel all the curses that came attached to the summoned spirits, and I suggest to bind that witch or wizard (if they are still alive) so that they cannot do further harm.

To strengthen yourself spiritually so that you resist the attempts of those spirits to renew agreements with you, you must read the word of God daily and come at those spirits with the word of God. You must know the Bible so well that it gets rooted in your being. A good sign that this happened is when you start receiving dreams of yourself quoting the Scriptures.

That’s how you strengthen the spirit, because the word of God is the bread of the spirit. And therefore this will cause your spirit to become strong and conscious in your dreams and it will be able to resist the temptations of Satan. It’s also better to come against evil spirits with Scripture in your waking life as well, because the word of God is the sword of the Spirit (Ephesians 6:17), so it’s more effective to fight this spiritual battle with the sword than by just rebuking demons without quoting Scripture.

The demonic spirits that are in your bloodline will not want to let you go easily. They will be relentless in trying to deceive you in your dreams so that they can stay in your body. If they have been in your bloodline for hundreds or even thousands of years, they consider you to be their property and they will put up a fight if you want to evict them from your body or life.

But if you keep breaking agreements and altars as soon as you wake up (even if you don’t remember the dream), and you read the word of God daily and pray, you will continue getting stronger until they can no longer deceive you and they will eventually have to leave.

What’s more, generational spirits are very strong, and some of them will only leave if you fast and pray as Jesus Himself told in Matthew 17:21.

Kevin, the man that I got this information from, advises dry fast for three days and during that fast you should continue reading warfare Bible verses and praying. If you are too weak for a three-days dry fast, do a shorter fast with the hope that later on you will be strong enough to do three days. Kevin guarantees that if you do such a fast you will free yourself from much demonic oppression.

(If you do a fast of a few days, make sure you don’t eat a large portion of food straight after it, but get back to normal eating gradually. The longer the fast, the longer the transition to normal food. If the fast is long, first you’ll have to drink juices, then the next day eat some fruit, then some porridge, milk and so on.)

So the man that I got all this wonderful information from is Kewin Ewing. He has many long videos going into detail of how demons operate, how altars work, and what your dreams mean. He knows what he’s talking about because he managed to break the curses that kept him in bonds and now he is free.

So I absolutely encourage you to watch his videos, and the video I really liked was this:

…which would be a good start to his other videos.

I hope you will check him out, he did his homework, and he is setting the captives free judging from the amount of the positive feedback that he receives. During his videos he also prays for people to be freed from particular curses, so if you feel like you’re under that particular curse, just repeat after him to break free from the bondage as his prayers are powerful.

So in conclusion, you can only break generational curses and demonic oppression when you trace the altars and agreements that are causing those demons to torment you. And you do so by noticing the pattern of particular misfortunes plaguing your family and past generations, as well as when you receive dreams where people in your dreams try to tempt you into eating food, hugging them, having sex with them, or having you to agree with them in any other way.

These particulars (the things you see in the dream, for example) give you a certain grip on those agreements, and therefore you can break those agreements in Jesus’ name by having those evil manifestations in mind, and then by sending spiritual fire from heaven to consume the altars that are erected against you, as well as refusing to renew the agreements in your dreams.
